Trial date set for woman accused of running down other woman in road rage incident

(AP) – A trial date has been set for a woman accused of intentionally running down another woman with her car in a road rage incident on a Springfield street three years ago. Television station KYTV reports that a judge has ordered 49-year-old Elizabeth McKeown to stand trial on June 6 for first-degree murder in the death of 57-year-old Barbara Foster. The new trial date follows years of delays concerning McKeown’s mental fitness to stand trial. Police have said McKeown admitted in interviews to intentionally ramming the back of Foster’s car on Nov. 20, 2018, then purposely running her down when Foster got out to inspect the damage.
