Tire marks on the sidewalk hint at the tragic accident that happened just before 11 a.m. Sunday, at 92nd Avenue and Pecos Street in Federal Heights. The identity of the female pedestrian killed is still unknown.
Witnesses and nearby businesses are sharing their sadness that a woman lost her life, while simply walking on the sidewalk.
“You never know when you’re just walking and all of a sudden…” Jose Aguir said.
Aguir is remembering a woman he didn’t know, killed just feet from his business Sunday morning.
“It’s very heartbreaking, you know, because they still don’t know, we don’t know, who she is yet. Yesterday I lit two candles for her,” said Aguir.
Security camera video from another business captured the crash. It shows the light-colored Ford Mustang veering off the road.
“When he was coming down, he took out these trees, and the victim, she was literally right here,” said Aguir, while gesturing to damaged trees on the sidewalk.
