Maria Cristina Sanfeliu-Cruz still remains in critical condition at Upstate Medical University Hospital, said Kathleen Paice, the hospital’s media and events coordinator, in an email.

Sanfeliu-Cruz was admitted to the hospital May 2 after an Express Taxi cab struck her on the 700 block of Comstock Avenue. The 21-year-old Syracuse University student suffered a head injury from the incident.

Sgt. Gary Bulinski of the Syracuse Police Department said the incident is still under investigation, but the police expect to have the case wrapped up by next week.
