The accident occurred shortly before 2:35 p.m., at the corner of Allard and Beaulieu streets, not far from the Monk metro station.
According to information gathered by officers from the Service de police de la ville de Montréal, the woman was crossing rue Beaulieu at the intersection when a vehicle coming from the east, on rue Allard, allegedly made a left turn before bump into her.
