SOUTH BOSTON (WBZ) ― The woman who was killed Saturday when her car was struck by a Boston police cruiser has been identified. along with the police officer who was operating the cruiser.

No charges have been filed.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with (the family) right now," Suffolk County District Attorney Dan Conley said.
