Actress Lisa Banes, 65, who starred in the film 'Gone Girl,' died on Monday, June 14, as a result of injuries she suffered after being struck by a hit-and-run scooter driver on the Upper West Side. She was visiting New York to meet her wife Kathryn Kranhold, for the first time since the pandemic began.

Hit-and-run cases are up 10% compared to 2020. In an earlier incident, an inebriated former porn star Katherine Colabella mowed down a priest while on her way to attend a party. In May 'School of Rock' actor Kevin Clark was killed in a tragic accident in Chicago. Earlier in January, an LA man died after being struck by three separate hit-and-run drivers with the last one dragging his body for half a mile.
