Staten Island Pedestrian Killed by Tractor-Trailer

Over the weekend a Staten Island woman was killed after she was hit by a tractor trailer while crossing a street in Staten Island, NY.  The Staten Island pedestrian who was hit recently had a hip surgery and was unable to get across the busy intersection before the light turned red.  The light turned green for the on-coming traffic to go and the tractor trailer driver saw the man that was walking ahead of the elderly woman who died but did not see her at all because he said she was in his blind spot.

The woman was crushed by the tractor trailer Saturday morning while walking across Port Richmond Avenue and Richmond Terrace in Staten Island.

So far no criminal charges have been placed against the driver of the tractor trailer.
