A pedestrian has died after being struck by a car in Edmonton on Saturday morning.

At approximately 1.40am, a woman in her 20s was struck by a vehicle at the intersection of the Bruce Hwy and Mill Rd.

A Queensland Police Service spokeswoman said the pedestrian was declared dead at the scene and that the driver of the vehicle was not harmed.

“The driver of the vehicle, an 18-year-old woman, was not physically injured and is assisting police with inquiries,” the spokeswoman said.
