The 82-year-old mother of a Paterson firefighter who died in the line of duty 22 years ago was struck and killed by a sedan on a city street, authorities said.
Mary Bitner was taken to St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center after being struck near the corner of Memorial Drive and Broadway around 3 p.m. Tuesday, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes and Paterson Police Chief Ibrahim Baycora said in a joint release.
A 21-year-old city resident whose 2012 Toyota Corolla hit her remained at the scene, they said.
Called a fixture in the city by Paterson firefighters, Bitner was pronounced dead 2½ hours later.
