The man was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries but later stabilized and was placed in a long-term care facility, police said. It was unclear if the driver stopped or if it was a hit and run.
On Wednesday, the Santa Clara County Coroner's Office notified the police that the pedestrian had succumbed to the injuries he suffered from the collision. He was pronounced dead last Friday, police said.
It was San Jose's 59th fatal traffic death for 2019, according to police.
