Woman Hit By Golf Cart Dies

Yesterday evening, Cook County sheriff's police were still investigating the death of a woman after she was hit by a golf cart at Idlewild Country Club in Flossmoor. Barbara Zoub, 78, was struck by a golf cart at the country club Sunday afternoon and pronounced dead later that night. The investigation, however, was late in starting. Cook County Sheriff's office spokesman Steve Patterson told reporters, "We were not immediately notified by Flossmoor police of this death and just began investigating this today. At this point, we're in the very early stages of the investigation and need to conduct interviews, as well as examine the scene." [Tribune]
