CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A woman accidentally struck several pedestrians in Charlotte after giving out food to homeless individuals, according to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
It happened in the 100 block of Phifer Avenue just before 10 a.m. Sunday.
Police said a woman had been assisting in passing out food to homeless individuals. She had been parked in the lot at 700 North Tryon and was backed into the parking space.
