Fox News
Police in South Carolina have cut back their use of patrol trucks on beaches after a 66-year-old woman was fatally killed by an officer driving a Ford Ranger earlier this month.
Michael Dorgan is a writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.
The woman was struck from the front and pinned under the front passenger side tire of the truck as it pulled onto the beach from the Nash Street access, according to The Post and Courier. After a frantic effort to save her, which included help from the driver and two paramedics who happened to be on the beach at the time, Schultz-Peters later died in a hospital.
