The driver of a five-ton moving truck that ran over and killed an 88-year-old woman as she tried to cross Broadway on her way to the Millennium Library earlier this month has been identified, Winnipeg police say. The woman, who family identified as Joan Shelton, was trying to cross Smith Street on Aug. 6 when she was hit by a five-ton truck travelling north on Smith that cut the curb while turning east onto Broadway, police have said. The truck drove away down Broadway without stopping and turned north onto Main Street, police said. Police said in a news release Wednesday that they've identified the driver, and the traffic division is investigating. Police wouldn't say if any charges have been laid, nor would they provide any details about the driver.
