A woman was critically injured after she was hit by a car and impaled on a metal fence in the Bronx on Friday night, police said.

The 59-year-old woman was walking down the street just after 6:30 p.m. when she was struck by a gray Lexus SUV in front of 2040 Bronxdale Ave. in Pelham Parkway, cops said.

The car forced the woman into a fence, impaling her as the car continued moving until it hit the building, police sources said.
