Spalding and her passenger, 15-year-old Destiny Coleman, also of Waterbury, both exited the Hyundai. After they exited, the Hyundai was hit by a 2012 Toyota Prius operated by a 38-year-old woman from Beacon, New York, police say.

This pushed the Hyundai Sonata into Coleman, which fatally injured her, according to New York State Police. Responding Westchester EMS paramedics pronounced Coleman deceased on scene.
