LOWER LAKE – Officials on Tuesday identified a Ukiah woman who died as the result of being hit by a vehicle on Sunday night.

 

Delia Smith, 34, died after being hit at about 10:40 p.m. Sunday as she walked along Highway 29 south of Doten Road near the Konocti Conservation Camp, the California Highway Patrol reported.

 

CHP Officer Adam Garcia said that it appears that Smith stepped into the traffic lane just before she was hit by a Kia SUV driving northbound.

 

He said CHP is trying to determine if Smith's moving into the traffic lane was intentional. Garcia added that a toxicology report also is pending.

 

Officer Randy Forslund is investigating the incident, Garcia said.
