A man who was struck by a car in San Jose last week has died from his injuries, police said today.

The victim was taken to Regional Medical Center of San Jose, where he died two days later. He has been identified as Jaime Barajas, 41, of Oakland.
Police said Barajas was walking across the southbound lanes of Monterey Road when a 2006 Ford Focus driven by a 41-year-old San Jose woman struck him.
