A pedestrian was struck by a dump truck in Falmouth on Wednesday morning.
The Falmouth Police Department says the truck was backing up in the parking lot of the Express Mart off Route 28 and struck the woman who was standing behind it at around 10:30 a.m.
Police say the truck's backup warning was properly functioning, and that the woman may have been distracted by her cell phone.
She was taken to a hospital for serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The incident remains under investigation.
