A 28-year-old man remained in critical condition yesterday after he was hit by a van Thursday night while crossing Kapi'olani Boulevard outside a crosswalk on the stretch near Kaimuki High School.

Police investigators said the man was crossing from makai to mauka on the busy thoroughfare and was struck by the westbound van near Mahi'ai Street.

The pedestrian was taken to The Queen's Medical Center and was reported to be in critical condition upon arrival.

The 55-year-old woman who was driving the Dodge Caravan was not injured, police said. Speed and alcohol do not appear to be factors in the case, investigators said.
