PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2023) — A man was struck by a car and killed while crossing Military Trail in Palm Beach Gardens.

The deadly crash happened at 7:39 PM on Monday, January 1st, 2023.

Laura Li Cheung, 52, was traveling southbound on Military Trail in the outside southbound lane in a Honda Accord.

At the same time, a man was crossing Military Trail westbound across the southbound lanes. According to investigators, the man crossed into the path of the Accord.
