Like so many unprovoked stranger homicides and assaults, this one was clearly rooted in severe, untreated mental illness

In August, the man allegedly pulled Dalton from her car, which struck and killed her as her assailant drove away.

i'm having trouble visualizing what happened here. she was pulled out of her car, and then her car rolled over her? but it only rolled her over after the assailant had returned to his own car and was driving away?

i'm not trying to be a skeptic: i'm just confused what actually happened.
