LOUISVILLE, Kentucky (AP) -- A former Miss America and wife of Lt. Gov. Steve Henry struck a bicyclist with her car, killing the woman, police said.

Heather French Henry, who was Miss America 2000, told police the sun was in her eyes as she was turning at an intersection Sunday evening and struck the 43-year-old woman, who was crossing outside the crosswalk.

Witnesses told police Henry had a green light at the time. Henry and her infant daughter were not injured.

2. You really should rephrase your subject line: sounds like *she* was killed

And from all indications it appears to be a tragic accident.

3. Consider it done

5. I agree ...

your headline is very misleading. In fact I thought 2 people (Miss America and the Lt Gov. wife) where killed.

Tragic accident.

4. How awful......

that is the sort of thing that could happen to any of us. I made a turn onto a side street one day, and a kid on a bike came riding out from behind a parked car and I almost hit him. (shudder) I feel sorry for the driver, as well as the victim. (Sounds like quite a different case from the congressman in South Dakota.)
