A 69-year-old woman was killed in an accident on the South Side Friday morning after a water delivery truck reportedly failed to yield for a stop sign and struck a vehicle at the intersection.

Pueblo County Coroner Brian Cotter identified the deceased as Anna Costanza, of Pueblo.

Around 9:45 a.m. a 26-year-old man was driving a Deep Rock Water delivery truck west on West Adams Avenue and, when he came to the intersection at Jackson Street, he reportedly drove through the stop sign there and collided with a Chrysler PT Cruiser that was traveling north on Jackson, according to Sgt.
