PITTSBURGH (AP) Officials say one of two pedestrians struck by a car while leaving a Pittsburgh Pirates game at PNC Park last week has died.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office says 80-year-old William Gallagher died at a hospital early Thursday.

Gallagher and his wife were hit by a car as they were crossing a street after the game on Aug. 9. It's unclear what the woman's condition is.

Authorities say 28-year-old Bryant Ellis was behind the wheel of the car that struck the couple. He's been charged with causing an accident that involved personal injury while not properly licensed and driving without a license.

Court records don't list an attorney for him.
