Florida Woman Killed walking across street

A car hit and killed Velma Kimmel as the deaf woman tried to walk across a street in Deerfield Beach, Florida. The town is just north of Fort Lauderdale. Police say the 71-year-old woman stepped into the path of an SUV last night. There was no crosswalk near the accident. Malvinas Miller-Jones, 42, who was driving the white 2005 Cadillac SRX that hit Kimmel, has not been charged but an investigation is still underway. She lived in a low-income, senior citizen community.
