Another Walker Dies in Warren Co.

There's been another fatal accident involving a pedestrian in Warren County.

Police say 49-year-old Pamela Simpson of Sugar Grove was walking on Catlin Hill Road 4/10 of a mile south of the New York State line at about 7:30 Friday night when she was hit by a pickup truck driven by 20-year-old Justin Roberts of Ashville, New York.

Simpson was thrown into a ditch and died instantly.

No charges have been filed, but the accident remains under investigation.

On Thursday, 43-year-old Shirley Cearfoss was walking in the southbound lane of South State Street when she was hit by a Brinks Tour & Charter bus.

Police say because this is the second pedestrian fatality in two days, they are recommending that people walking along the road at night wear light-colored or reflective clothing and that they consider carrying a flashlight. They also advise people to move off the travel lanes as vehicles approach.
