A memorial service for Theriot was held in Valdosta Monday.

Theriot had three children, two from Louisiana and one from Missouri. Theriot and her siblings were raised in Valdosta, a family member told The Times Monday.

Theriot’s family expresses thanks for the prayers and food during their time of bereavement.

Theriot “was crossing North Ashley Street and was struck by a vehicle traveling in the northbound lane of North Ashley Street,” Valdosta Police Lt. Bobbie McGraw said.

Coincidentally, a Valdosta police cruiser happened to be behind the vehicle. The police unit’s in-car camera system recorded the incident, Valdosta Police Cmdr. Brian Childress said last week. The police cruiser was not involved in the incident, but was able to immediately work the scene.

The woman apparently stepped in front of the oncoming vehicle. She made an effort to run but too late, and the vehicle struck her.

Police did not release the driver’s name, but McGraw said no charges have been filed against the driver. Based on the recording, the driver had no chance of stopping the car, Childress said. He didn’t have time to even hit his brakes.
