Otilia Arriaza

Otilia Arriaza (May 18, 1936 – December 29, 2006) was a 70-year-old woman who was struck and mortally injured as she crossed Baron Cameron Avenue at Bennington Woods Road in Reston by a 2000 Saturn station wagon driven by a 55-year-old man from Stanley, Virginia on December 29, 2006.[1]
