A
32-year-old woman died Monday night after she and a toddler were
reportedly struck by an elderly Somerville man's SUV at 25 Munroe St.

Kimberly
McGinley of Dedham and a 2-year-old Roslindale child were standing at
the curb around 3:30 p.m. when Somerville police Deputy Chief Paul
Upton said the 71 year-old driver's Nissan Pathfinder "suddenly
accelerated" while maneuvering into or out of a parking spot.

A
police statement released Tuesday said McGinley had died of her
injuries Monday night. The child's condition was updated to stable.

Upton
said the driver has not been charged but his license was revoked Monday
morning pending the outcome of an investigation by the Crash
Reconstruction Unit. It is expected to conclude by the end of the week.

The names of the driver and the child have not been released.
