Three women in three years hit by dark truck

TRAVERSE CITY — Kylee Bonne “sank to the floor” after seeing a news story flash on her cellphone: A Traverse City woman died after a dark SUV or pickup truck struck her as she bicycled home from work.

“I can’t stop thinking about her,” Bonne said. “It brought back memories of my night ... when the truck left the roadway and veered toward me.”

Bonne referred to the tragic death of Kelly Ann Boyce, 29, struck down early July 5 by a hit-and-run driver as she pedaled east on Washington Street. She rode within a foot of the curb when a dark SUV or pickup truck — traveling in the same direction — hit her.

Boyce was thrown from the bicycle and became entangled with the vehicle. It dragged her for more than a block to an alleyway on Railroad Street.
