A person was hit by an RTD bus in Washington Park area of Denver.

A man was rushed to the hospital on Thursday afternoon after being struck by a Regional Transportation District bus in the Washington Park neighborhood of Denver. The incident occurred at around 3:43 p.m. near the intersection of South University Boulevard and East Florida Avenue. The injured pedestrian was male, but the police were unable to confirm his age at the time of the incident.

The Denver Police Department quickly responded to the scene of the crash, which caused quite a stir in the community. The victim's condition was not immediately known, but his injuries did not seem to be life-threatening according to department spokesperson Sienna Riley. However, the cause of the accident is still under investigation and officers are working to gather all the necessary details.

This incident brings to light the ongoing issue of pedestrian safety in the city. It's a topic that has been making headlines in recent months, with several similar incidents occurring in the area. In fact, just last week, a driver was accused of causing a fatal crash that claimed the lives of two parents and their two children. The driver later succumbed to their own injuries. In another unfortunate incident, a pedestrian was hospitalized after being involved in a hit-and-run near Acoma.

The crash also caused some traffic disruptions, as the northbound lanes of South University Boulevard had to be temporarily closed. Thankfully, the road has since been reopened. And while the police are still investigating this particular incident, they have also been busy dealing with other accidents in the area. For example, a motorcyclist lost their life in a crash in Aurora, which was apparently caused by a swerving sedan. And in Commerce City, an SUV was hit by a train after getting stuck on the tracks.

As for the Regional Transportation District, they have deferred all questions about the crash to the Denver Police Department. They are likely to provide more information in the coming days as the investigation progresses. In the meantime, it's important for everyone to stay vigilant and follow all traffic rules and regulations to ensure the safety of all road users.
