This is a scary thing to face as a Kansas City motorist. It’s early, still dark and you’re heading home or maybe to work on a busy highway, when you see someone stumbling along the highway on foot– but in a shocking development, that’t sadly what early morning commuters were faced with a few days ago on their way to work.
A 25 year-old Topeka, Kansas woman was hit and killed while on foot on Interstate 29 in Kansas City, Missouri. The fatal pedestrian-auto accident happened around 4:15 a.m. according to Kansas City Police, who say the woman was trying to cross the highway at Tiffany Springs Parkway when she was struck by as many as six different vehicles.
