Pedestrian succumbs to injuries  l-cox
Updated: 2016-02-01 12:52:50
Springfield police officers just after 7 p.m. on January 26, 2016, responded to 2515 N. Glenstone Avenue for a crash involving a vehicle and pedestrian.

Pedestrians Petra Hensler, 53, and Kevin Drake, 56, both of Springfield, were traveling westbound and crossing Glenstone when Hensler was struck by a vehicle traveling southbound in the outside lane. Hensler was transported to a hospital with critical injuries. She succumbed to those injuries on January 30. Drake as well as the driver, Anthony Hutchins, 19, of Springfield, were not injured.

Henslers next of kin has been notified. The investigation is ongoing.

Editor's note: The accident occurred in the area of Glenstone where Culver's is located on the east side and Ziggie's as well as a Best Western is located on the west side. Traffic lights that would aid in crossing this busy five lane street (two lanes each direction and center turning lane) are located both north and south of the area at a great distance away.
