BELLEFONTAINE, Ohio (AP) — Police in western Ohio say a U.S.
Marine was killed over the weekend when she was hit by a car that
didn’t stop.
Police are seeking the car that hit 34-four-year-old
Monica Plank of Stafford, Va. She was struck while walking just after
midnight Sunday, after leaving a restaurant in Bellefontaine, northwest
of Columbus.
The Bellefontaine Examiner (http://bit.ly/1jLkFUa ) reports that Plank, a Marine
gunnery sergeant, died hours later at a Columbus hospital.
Police
said Plank was walking north in the outside northbound lane of traffic
because of snow- and ice-covered sidewalks. Her husband, Chris Plank, a
native of the area who is also a U.S. Marine sergeant, was about 100 to
200 feet behind her.
