SAN ANTONIO (AP) -- A 7-year-old girl was struck and killed by a pickup
truck while riding her new bicycle in front of her home on Christmas
morning, police and family members said.
Jacueline Solis rode the pink and purple bike into the truck's path as
it accelerated from a stop at an intersection, police Sgt. Charlie
Delgado said. Jacueline, who got the bike as a Christmas gift, died at
the scene.
The driver was not speeding and won't face criminal charges, police
said.
"She was only supposed to ride on the sidewalk," said Maria Guerra,
Jacueline's aunt.
More than 50 people held a candlelight vigil in Jacueline's memory
Tuesday evening.
"She was just out caroling up and down this street last night," said
Raul Guerra, the uncle of the girl's father. "She knew about everybody
on this block."
The family was in shock over the loss and dreading future holidays.
"They'll be so difficult for us," Raul Guerra said. "I don't know how
we'll do it."
