(KNSI) — We are learning more about a crash on Highway 10 that seriously injured a pedestrian on Wednesday.

According to the St. Cloud Police Department, about 6:40 p.m., they were called to the crash on Highway 10 near the Highway 23 overpass. They say 28-year-old Dontel Dawon Dawson of St. Cloud was crossing Highway 10 Eastbound in an area that was not marked with a crosswalk.

A 26-year-old woman was going north on Highway 10 in the right lane when a car in the left lane slammed on its breaks to avoid hitting Dawson. Investigators say the woman was unable to stop in time.

Bystanders immediately rendered aid and called 911. Dawson was rushed to St. Cloud Hospital with serious injuries. Police say he is in stable condition.

Based on the investigation, police say, no citations were issued.
