A 7-year-old pedestrian who was hit by an elderly driver while walking outside of a Miami pharmacy with her mother has died, officials announced over the weekend. 

The girl was walking outside the pharmacy, located at Southwest 32nd Avenue and 22nd Street, on Sept. 2 around 4:30 p.m. when a 92-year-old woman in a Nissan SUV drove up onto the sidewalk and hit her. Police told local news outlets the woman was attempting to park when she hit her accelerator instead of the brakes. 

The girl was taken to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital with head injuries. The woman who was driving was previously cited for careless driving and police told local reporters that further charges were possible. The child’s death is still under investigation.
