LANDOVER, Md. – Investigators Tuesday are notifying the family of a woman killed when she was tossed from a car that crashed into a Kentucky Fried Chicken in Landover, Md.

Hellena Louise Smith, 29, drove her four-door BMW through the large glass windows of the restaurant on Sheriff Road and Martin Luther King Highway around 6:30 p.m. Monday, Prince George’s County Police say. Witnesses say the car appeared to be traveling close to 100 miles per hour.
