An elderly Purcellville woman was injured Thursday after she was struck by a vehicle.

The woman, 83, was attempting to cross the street at East Main and 20th street about 5:29 p.m. when she was hit, according to Purcellville Police Chief Daryl Smith.

The woman was not using a crosswalk, he said.

“She was wearing dark clothes and the driver didn’t see her,” Smith said.

The woman was airlifted from the scene to Inova Fairfax Hospital with serious, but non life-threatening injuries.

Smith said an investigation into the incident is ongoing.

The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office assisted with the call.
