Last night, a 60-year-old woman named Elqourdes Dacine was killed in Orange County, Florida, as she was pushing a shopping cart in a marked crosswalk. She was struck around 8:30 p.m. in Orlando.
When she was hit, a 61-year-old man from Orlando was driving his 2017 Dodge van. He struck Dacine, who was immediately taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center, where she died from her injuries. Alcohol did not play a role in the crash.
The driver was not injured. It is not known at this time if the driver is facing any charges.
