A man was pronounced dead at the scene and a woman was taken to UPMC Mercy in critical condition. Police said the driver operates his own construction company and was delivering breakfast to a job site when he lost consciousness. The busy intersection is near Station Square, a former railroad station that's been redeveloped as a shopping and entertainment complex just south of downtown. The crash remains under investigation.
