Abilene, Texas – An 80-year-old Abilene female has passed away due to injuries sustained in a vehicle crash. On Thursday, September 22, 2022, Ida Schulz of Abilene was walking in the parking lot of a north Abilene superstore located in the 1600 block of Hwy. 351, when a vehicle backing out of a parking space hit her. Schulz was pushing a shopping basket into the store when she stopped, bent down to retrieve property she had dropped and was impacted by a 2006 Hyundai Sonata.
This low-impact collision caused Ms. Schulz to fall backward and hit her head on the asphalt. She was transported to the hospital where she was later pronounced deceased.
