UPDATE: Crash Victim Identified
The victim in the Tysons Corner-area fatal crash has been identified as Kil Sun Flom, 59, of Dale City.
Crash Reconstruction detectives determined before Flom was struck by the pumper truck, she was attempting to merge from the right lane of Leesburg Pike into the center lane when the two vehicles collided. She pulled slightly forward, exited her vehicle and stepped in front of the truck, but below the driver’s line of sight. The driver, moving forward with the flow of traffic, could not see Flom and she was hit by the truck.
