The mother was then struck by a second vehicle in the southbound lane and the driver fled, said Toronto Police Const. The father and another child, 2, crossed the street safely while the mother and daughter were struck. The 34-year-old woman and her daughter died when they were struck just before 9:30 p.m. after eating at Silver Spoon restaurant. A family dinner out ended in tragedy on Wednesday night when a 5-year-old girl and her mother were struck and killed by vehicles on Warden Avenue as they attempted to cross it afterwards. “This is not built with pedestrians in mind, at all,” said Coyle, co-founder of pedestrian advocacy group Walk Toronto.
