ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a pedestrian in central Florida is dead after being struck by a deputy sheriff on her way to a call.
 
Officials report two deputies were responding to a report of four suspects fleeing in a stolen vehicle. One of the suspects was armed.
 
The Orange County Sheriff's Office deputies were in two separate cars, one traveling behind the other.
