SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) - A 60-year-old San Francisco woman who was struck by a San Francisco Municipal Railway bus Friday afternoon died Sunday, the San Francisco Medical Examiner's office reported today.

Wan Yu was crossing the street around 3:30 p.m. near the intersection of Kearny and Jackson streets when she was struck by a northbound No. 15-Third Street Muni bus, according to the San Francisco Police Department and Muni.

She was taken to San Francisco General Hospital with life-threatening injuries, according to police.

The incident was the third collision involving a Muni vehicle in as many days. Late Wednesday afternoon a woman was struck and injured on Market Street at Powell Street by a No. 71 bus headed toward the Embarcadero.

On Thursday afternoon a bicyclist collided with an N-Judah line train on the Embarcadero at Bryant Street, according to police.
