A teacher described as a 'caregiver' and 'beautiful person inside out' was hit and killed by a truck as she dragged her small suitcase across a New York street Friday.

Sarah Foster, 27, passed away at the scene after being struck by the vehicle belonging to a heating oil company at around 5.45am on East 37th Street and Third Avenue in Midtown Manhattan.

She was reportedly wearing headphones and hood when the Approved Oil truck made a left turn and she was knocked to the ground just steps away from her 36th street apartment.
