\"NijzelSACRAMENTO, Calif. \u2014<\/p>\n

A woman was killed, and a 4-year-old child was hurt after being struck by a vehicle on Sunday near a soccer field. <\/p>\n

The Sacramento Police Department said officers responded to a parking lot in the 500 block of Las Palmas Avenue around 3:15 p.m. <\/p>\n

The crash happened near an area where community members say families often gather for weekend sports games. <\/p>\n

A witness said a driver was parking and seemed to accidentally hit the gas instead of the brake, striking the woman and child.<\/p>\n

The woman was taken to a hospital with major injuries and the child with minor injuries. The woman was pronounced dead, despite lifesaving measures, police said. <\/p>\n

Police said the driver involved in the crash remained on scene and investigators do not believe that alcohol or drugs are a factor. The crash is under investigation.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the Sacramento County coroner identified the woman as 48-year-old Maria Araceli Pena, of Sacramento.<\/p>\n
