Fatal Crash,San Francisco

A 71-year-old woman who was arrested last August in connection with a deadly crash at 4th and King streets that killed a 4-year-old girl and critically injured her father last August will not serve time in jail, according to the San Francisco District Attorney.

Just after 5 p.m. on August 15, the girl was being pushed in a stroller by her father when the driver failed to yield and hit them as they walked in a crosswalk. The girl later died from her injuries at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital while her father was treated for life-threatening injuries, authorities said. 71-year-old Karen Cartagena was arrested following the fatal collision on suspicion of three counts of failure to yield to pedestrians and vehicular manslaughter.

She will also have to complete a driver safety class and is not allowed to drive until the class is completed.'My heart is broken for the Kim family. As a parent, I know that one of the worst pains anyone can ever endure is the loss of a child,' Jenkins said in the statement.
