A Reisterstown woman who was struck by a car Monday night in Dundalk has died of her injuries.

Crash investigators determined that, at about 9 p.m. Monday, Santos was crossing Eastern Avenue against the red light and wasn't in a crosswalk, according to a statement from spokeswoman Cpl. Cathleen Batton.
