After being hit, the 62-year-old person was transported to the hospital via ambulance with what a Milwaukee police officer at the scene told the Journal Sentinel were “serious injuries.”

Police said the driver of the car — which appeared to be a sedan — remained on the scene and cooperative with the investigation, which is ongoing.
