Philadelphia Police say that a woman was struck and killed by a SEPTA bus Monday evening in Center City. The incident happened after 5:30 pm Monday at the intersections of 23rd and Chestnut Street. The woman was struck by a Route 9 bus when she was attempting to cross the street with her stroller. The woman was pronounced dead on the scene.
