    In July, three men were charged with murder in connection with the death of a tourist from New Zealand, 68-year-old Patricia McKay, who was fatally run over during an attempted robbery at Fashion Island.

    Authorities said the robbers approached McKay and her husband outside the mall when the suspects tried to grab a watch and shopping bags from the couple. McKay was run over, trapped under the vehicle and dragged 65 feet as the suspects drove away from the scene.
