I just received this from a friend:


QUOTE:
Please post wherever it would be helpful.

At about 8pm here was an accident near Bamboo furniture in Riberas
involving a Chrysler Voyager. There were two dogs in the car.
My Mexican friend said the dogs were left in the car.

The woman had no identification but had some money. Her car has Indiana
plates. She is about 70, blonde hair, and had no shoes on. She had a paper with an
address of 10 Santes Vicente (sic) on it...but no one was in
the house. The woman was unconscious. Her status is unknown.

I managed to get hold of Dale Palfrey a few minutes ago.

If anyone recognises her please contact the Red Cross".
UNQUOTE

COULD SOMEONE PLEASE POST THIS ON THE OTHER BOARD? MANY THANKS.

It's been reported on other forums that the woman died, her identity is known to the police, and we don't know what happened to the dogs. Very sad.

Yes it is very sad about the dogs and the lady.
Where has it been reported that she died? I have checked 3 other forums and except for the above message on TOB there is no mention of this accident.

Oops sorry Dave P. It was on a few private boards that I belong to. Her name was Karen Marts McConnaghey, Ops Manager for Focus on Mexico. Her husband teaches tai chi. Very very sad.

Well heck, lucky I said allegedly and reportedly when I repeated what I was told with seemingly (!!) good authority.

Who IS the unlucky woman then?!

Yikes...no! I'm fine. This is Karen McConnaughey...I was not killed in an accident last night. Please let's get this news out there. I have gotten phone calls and emails AND lots of upset people! Stop now! I'm so interested in how this rumor got started!

Thank everyone for your concern, and really, I'm not upset for myself, I'm just really upset for my friends that read this and believed it. It was just kind of shocking to read.

Karen, I am sooooooo sorry for having posted, along with others. I don't think I know you, but what a relief to know that you are ok. This was posted on another board, private, so I have left off the name:

"On FB someone posted that her name was Karen Marts McConnaghey."

Very very strange. Wondering if someone was hurt at all. Warm regards.

I think it is real - email came from a credible source (apparently her mexican neighbor was a 1st hand witness) - and in rereading them - included the info that Norm went down last night to the red cross and could not identify her - and cause was a blown tire.

I did look in the online newspapers and found nothing about this - but did see an article where 4 kids (18-23) from Ocotlan were found dead in Michocan

The other info - police identified her etc was NOT included in the information I received.

So I am guessing this probably did happen -

Did look a the online newspapers = and found nothing. But did see where 4 guys ( rescatistas - rescuers? 18-23) from Ocotlan were found murdered in Michoacan today - so looks like violence not over just moved to another commmunity.............

Wow! Good thing that news of your demise was greatly exaggerated. Happy to hear you're still here.

If I were you I'd start happy hour a bit early.

Cheers, we'll have one for you as well this evening, then one for your husband, and one for your friends.

Yes - there really was an accident - according to a credible friend, her neighbor happened to be in a house with friends on the street nearby and was the first on the scene...went to Red Cross and stayed with her until she was told she had died.

Apparently the cause of the accident was a blown tire.

And I did get an update that the person was identified last evening by the Chapala police - but they haven't released the name.
