BROCKTON, MA — A Brockton pedestrian killed by a car that veered off the road early Wednesday morning was identified as 50-year-old Chafang Wu, officials said. A Toyota Prius struck a telephone pole and a pedestrian near Ash and West Chestnut Streets around 6:30 a.m., witness Mike Gomes told WCVB. Gomes stayed on the scene with Wu and the driver of the Prius while officials investigated. "Coming up this hill, you can't see in the morning, and I just think she veered off a little bit and ended up going through the pole," Gomes said. Wu was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital and pronounced dead there. Police are still investigating, but the District Attorney said they don't suspect foul play.
