HENRICO COUNTY, Va. β A woman was hit and killed by a driver in Henrico County Tuesday evening, according to police.
The crash happened at the intersection of Glenside Drive and Inglewood Street just before 6 p.m.
Wednesday morning, police identified the woman as Barbara Ann Jones, 62, of Henrico.
Police said the preliminary investigation shows that Jones and a man were crossing the northbound lanes of Glenside Drive when a Hyundai Santa Fe tried to brake for the pedestrians and swerved to avoid them, but ultimately hit Jones.
"The driver of the Hyundai remained on scene and is cooperating with the investigation," police said.
"I feel just gutted," said Edith Patterson, who lives in the area. "We've asked the county to do speed watches, which they've done. Various of us have called the office to say, pay attention to the traffic here, and they didn't. The road isn't as safe as it could be, and it makes me angry on behalf of the family that lost their wife and mother, and sad for everybody in the community."
