A man has died in hospital after being hit by a van at a shopping centre in Charlestown four weeks ago.
Emergency services were called to level two of the shopping centre on Frederick Street after an 87-year-old man and an 80-year-old woman were struck by the van about 11am Thursday 3 October 2019.
The man sustained multiple critical injuries and has been undergoing treatment ever since; however, officers from Lake Macquarie Police District have now been told the man died yesterday (Friday 1 November 2019), in hospital.
The injured woman was treated on the day for a head injury and allowed to go home.
The van driver, a 70-year-old woman from Hamilton South, was not injured and underwent mandatory testing.
Inquiries are continuing by Lake Macquarie PD.
