Woman Killed Crossing Street in Wheelchair
Police say a 53-year-old woman was killed while trying to cross the street in her motorized wheelchair.

It happened around 7:00pm Saturday night in the 5400 block of Walzem Road.

Investigators say the woman was not using a designated crosswalk when she decided to cross the street.  She almost made it across when a white Toyota crashed into her. The woman was then thrown into the opposite lane of traffic, where she was hit by a second vehicle, described by witnesses as a black truck.

The driver of the first car stopped and tried to help, but the driver of the black truck kept going.

Attempts to resuscitate the woman were unsuccessful.

Police say the first driver was not intoxicated and will not face any charges.

However, if caught, the driver of that black truck will be charged with failure to stop and render aid, which is a felony.
