Officials said an Arizona woman was killed after being struck by a
self-driving Uber vehicle early Monday -- an incident believed to be the
first of its kind.

The accident in the Phoenix suburb of Tempe caused the company to
suspend all testing of self-driving vehicles in cities across the country.

Tempe Police Sgt. Ronald Elcock told FOX10 Phoenix the woman was walking
outside of a crosswalk when she was struck by the vehicle.

It seems to have hit a push bike as well on its way to killing the pedestrian, but the report states that the two events were not related. RIP, etc.
