A car crash claimed the life of an elderly Massapequa woman while she was crossing the street in her hometown on Wednesday morning.
Nassau police said Rosalia Raia, 85, was walking eastbound across Broadway near Toronto Avenue when she was struck by a 1999 Ford driven by an 18-year-old woman at 11 a.m.
The victim was pronounced dead at the scene and taken to Nassau University Medical Center.
Seventh Squad detectives say that the driver, whose name police did not release, was not breaking any laws at the time.
