A 46-year-old Mundelein woman died late Friday after being struck by a car as she crossed Route 45, just north of the Route 83 intersection.

At about 10 p.m., Mundelein Fire Department transported Brigitte Terzian to Condell Medical Center in Libertyville, where she was pronounced dead shortly thereafter.
