Police say an orange Hyundai SUV left the Metro parking lot going northbound when it collided with a black Honda Civic going westbound. The impact caused the Hyundai to then strike 42-year-old Parinaz Motahedin as she was crossing Clarissa Street, police say.

An off-duty Brockville firefighter was on scene at the time, and paramedics rushed to try to save Motohedin, but she later died of her injuries.
