The person who was hurt was rushed to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
A pedestrian has reportedly died after being hit by a car in a Roxbury parking lot Wednesday morning, during an incident that Boston police initially reported as an assault.
The incident happened around 6:30 a.m. along Harrison Avenue. Responding police found EMS giving the victim CPR, the agency said.
In an update from the Suffolk District Attorney's Office, officials said that a driver struck a man with a car, and that the driver remained on scene. The incident was not characterized as being criminal in nature.
Photos from the scene showed multiple police vehicles and a street blocked off with crime scene tape.
Harrison Avenue appeared to be closed from Dudley Street to Shabazz Way, with the investigation seemingly centered around a parking lot at the intersection of Taber Street. Buses and school buses were being redirected.
Additional details were not immediately available.
