BROOKLYN — A woman died on Wednesday after being struck by a motorcycle in Bensonhurst earlier in the month, according to the NYPD.

Huiling Huang, 57, walked between two parked and tried to cross New Utrecht Avenue at 17th Avenue on July 2 at 10:35 a.m. when she was struck by a person riding a Harley Davidson north on the avenue.

She suffered serious injuries to her head and neck and was transported to Lutheran Medical Center.

Huang, who lived in Flushing, Queens, succumbed to her injuries on July 20.

An NYPD spokeswoman said she did not know if the motorcyclist remained on the scene. There have been no charges in connection to the incident, which is under investigation by the Collision Investigation Squad.
