Driver in fatal Walmart accident won’t be charged

Calling the incident a “tragic accident,” Ozaukee County District Attorney Benjamin Lindsay announced last week that he will not bring criminal charges against the 74-year-old driver of a pickup truck who hit and killed a woman in the parking lot of the Walmart store in Saukville in October.

The driver, a Fredonia resident, told authorities she accidentally hit the gas instead of the brakes while parking in a handicapped spot.
