BLACKSTONE — Police in Blackstone are looking for the driver of a snow plow that is believed to have struck and killed a 50-year-old woman. Rita Plante - a mother of five who worked as a teller at a local bank - was hit from behind as she approached her home on Blackstone Street late yesterday afternoon. Police and neighbors say Plante was forced to walk in the street because the sidewalks in the area were still covered in snow. Investigators say Plante was struck by a white Ford pick-up with a snow plow. A car behind the truck also hit the woman, but that vehicle stopped and the driver will not face charges. — The Associated Press
