Authorities say two women watching the eclipse while standing on a sidewalk in Kentucky were struck by a car, and one has died. Kentucky State Police Trooper Jody Sims says the car crossed the center line and hit a utility pole as well as the pedestrians Monday (August 21, 2017) in Hyden, about 120 miles southeast of Lexington. The car ended up resting on its side. Sims says 23-year-old Mackenzie P. Hays was pronounced dead, and 41-year-old Rhonda Belcher was flown to the University of Kentucky Hospital in Lexington. Thirty-eight-year-old motorist Alyssa Noble was taken to a medical center. State Police Capt. Jennifer Sandlin confirmed the pedestrians were viewing the partial eclipse. Police didn’t say what caused the crash. The two worked at Primary Care and were on a lunch break when the crash happened. It was unclear whether the driver, Alyssa Noble, was under the influence at the time, the station says.
