A woman out for a morning walk near her home was struck by a car and killed on Turner Road in Davidson County Wednesday, the N.C. Highway Patrol said.

Hopkins died at the scene.
No charges are expected to be filed against the driver. Hopkins was carrying a flashlight, but the batteries were apparently low and the bulb was dim, the highway patrol said.
