The second accident happened around 9 p.m. The State Patrol says a pedestrian was hit by a car while walking on a road in Louisa County. Forty-three-year-old Lian Hmun Sang of Columbus Junction was dead at the scene.
The 70-year-old motorist told troopers she didn’t see Sang as she turned into a private driveway.
