SAN ANTONIO -- A woman died after she crashed her van into a tree in the Medical Center area Wednesday morning.
The accident happened just before 8:00 a.m. Wednesday in the 2600 block of Babcock Road. Police say 47-year-old Kirsten Michelle Walker, who was diabetic, was driving west on Babcock when she lost control of her Ford Windstar. The van traveled across traffic, over the sidewalk, and crashed into a tree in a field. Walker's 10-year-old daughter, who was a passenger in the van, told police her mom had started feeling sick shortly before the accident.
Walker died at the scene. Her daughter was taken to University Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
