The crash happened in the evening hours of Wednesday in the 2900 block of Rogerdale Road. Police said a driver hit the gas pedal, thinking it was her brakes, and hit a bystander who was going into the post office and stopping against the back wall.

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene. Meanwhile, the driver was taken to the hospital with no serious injuries.
"There are no indications that intoxication played a role, but they're going to make sure that's exactly what happened," Sean Teare, the Harris County Vehicular Crimes Division chief, said. "We're not prepared to and won't charge anyone with anything. But we're going to turn over every stone to make sure that's exactly what it looks like, a tragic accident."
