A 69-year-old woman has died after being hit by a reversing car in a Waikiki parking lot, a tragedy for her family and a reminder of how dangerous parking lots can be for pedestrians.

• The woman was struck Friday when she walked behind a vehicle that was backing up.
• She was taken to the hospital in serious condition and died from her injuries.
• Police are treating this as a non-traffic fatality rather than a standard traffic crash.

Outlook: Police are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the crash.
