The Virginia State Police on Friday identified the woman who was killed Wednesday morning when her car crashed into a tractor-trailer on Interstate 95 in Fairfax County.

The police said in a statement that Krista Kelley, 24, of Henrico, Virginia, was driving south near Lorton Road when her Corolla ran off the road and crashed into the back of a tractor-trailer that was parked on the right shoulder.

Kelley died at the scene, the police said; the driver of the tractor-trailer wasn’t hurt. The police are continuing to investigate.

A golf course for ‘the people’ faces a presidential makeover

By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — A pack of cyclists whisked by along the circuit at East Potomac Park while the golf course parking lot filled with luxury SUVs parked next to older, inexpensive economy cars, all with the Washington Monument in the background. The scene highlighted what residents say are the park's best features: its accessibility and affordability right in the nation's capital. The historic park, especially the golf course, has caught the eye of President Donald Trump, who wants to turn it into a world-class golf venue. It's part of his grand vision for Washington, D.C., where he has torn down storied structures, remade or renamed others and deployed the National Guard for more than a year. But some residents fear the planned changes to the golf course — where Trump has visited with a cabinet member, a well-known golf course architect and blueprints — risk altering the character of a place that has served Washingtonians of many stripes for more than a century. Turning the park into an upscale golf course will mean costlier fees and a loss of public space, residents worry.
