A pedestrian who was hit and killed by a motorist as she walked on a sidewalk Monday evening in Plymouth has been identified as Mary Singleton, the Hennepin County medical examiner said.
Singleton, 56, was walking on the 700 block of County Road 101 at 5:48 p.m. when she was hit from behind, according to Plymouth police.
Singleton died of multiple blunt-force injuries, the medical examiner said.
The driver who hit Singleton, 56-year-old Luann Mosio Johnson from Medina, was headed north on County 101 when her vehicle jumped the curb and struck Singleton. Johnson was arrested and taken to jail on probable cause of criminal vehicular homicide, a detective said.
Toxicology results are pending, police added.
