The 32-year-old Danvers woman who was seriously injured when she was struck by a vehicle in a Maple Street crosswalk in late November has been released from the hospital.

There are few other details available about the condition of Zahra Amjadi, who suffered life-threatening injuries in the Nov. 29 accident. Ryan Donovan, a spokesman for Massachusetts General Hospital, said Amjadi has been released but no further details were available. She was taken to Mass. General by Boston MedFlight helicopter after the 7:30 a.m. crash.

Police said this week that the investigation into the crash is ongoing. Danvers police Capt. Pat Ambrose said that the State Police’s accident reconstruction team is conducting the investigation, which can typically take a month or longer.
