A homeless woman was tragically killed in Florida this week after a driver unknowingly parked their vehicle on top of her while she slept in a parking space.

Authorities believe Henrietta Regina Dickson, 55, either fell asleep or passed out in the parking lot of a St. Petersburg, Fla. complex. Driver Fathima Masud told police that, despite hearing a bump when she parked her car, she found nothing but Dickson's bag when exiting her vehicle. Police did not discover her body until they noticed a hand sticking out from beneath Masud's car. 

Masuf will not be charged, and Dickson, who reportedly struggled with drugs and alcohol, was left without a home after a friend she had been living with kicked her out because she returned home too intoxicated and unruly.
