A hit-and-run driver struck and killed 68-year-old Cecilia Shu while she walked in the neighborhood of Oceanside, CA and now her family wants answers.
According to ABC10 News, Shu died on the scene that morning. Police said a black Honda SUV drove onto the sidewalk and hit her as she was on her daily walk. The car then made a U-Turn and sped off.
“Not a forgivable action … Don’t think it was fair that she was taken away from us,” said Enid Shu, the daughter of Shu to ABC10 News.
Police believe the collision that killed Cecilia was accidental and speed may have been a factor. They said the same car has been seen speeding in the area before, and the driver may live in the Oceanside area.
Enid Shu described her mom as a funny, optimistic woman enjoying her retirement. Enid just had a newborn, but her mother never had the opportunity to meet her new grandchild because of her death.
