A vehicle driven by a DUI suspect struck and killed a 36- year-old woman strolling alongside on a North County street today, authorities reported.
Kristen Bedard was walking to the north on a sidewalk in the 13700 block of Community Road in Poway when the southbound vehicle veered off the street and struck her about 7 a.m., according to the county Medical Examiner’s Office.
She died at the scene. Deputies gave the 44-year-old motorist, Becky Marie Anderson, a sobriety test, then arrested her on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter and driving while intoxicated, sheriff’s Sgt. Jason Rothlein said.
