An elderly woman was killed in Markham Tuesday morning after she became trapped underneath a vehicle.
The 77-year-old victim was walking along a crosswalk on Carlton Road at around 9 a.m. when she was struck by a black Mitsubishi that was making a left turn from Central Park Drive.
The woman, whose name has not been released by police, died at the scene. The 45-year-old woman who was driving the car was not injuried, police said.
