Warrenville woman killed crossing busy road

A Warrenville woman was struck and killed while trying to cross a busy road on the city's west side Tuesday evening.

Linda McGregor, 41, was attempting to cross Batavia Road from the south when she was struck by a westbound car approximately 75 feet east of the Country Ridge Drive intersection, Warrenville police said. That intersection leads to a popular shopping center at the northeast corner of Route 59 and Batavia Road.

The accident occurred at 6 p.m., police said.

McGregor was taken to Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield where she was pronounced dead just before 7 p.m., police said.

The investigation is ongoing, and the DuPage County coroner's office plans an autopsy for today. However, the driver of the vehicle has not been charged and police don't expect to do so.

"There's no indication that it's anything other than an unfortunate accident," Deputy Chief John Naydenoff said.
