A 62-year-old Danbury woman injured in a car accident on her way to the post office in July 2014 has received a $200,000 settlement.

Sarah Cormier's Pontiac was struck by an Acura driven by Sheikh Ilyas after she parked her car and unbuckled her seat belt, according to her attorney, Mark Kochanowicz, an associate with Trantolo & Trantolo in Waterbury.

“Before she even had a chance to open her door, she heard a bang and felt the impact,” Kochanowicz said.
