ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — An autopsy says an Orlando woman died from injuries to her neck and head that were caused by a car collision and an exploding air bag.
Associate Medical Examiner Joshu Stephany said in a report released Tuesday that 51-year-old Hien Tran's death last month was an accident.
Just weeks after Tran's death, the U.S. government issued an urgent plea to more than 4.7 million people to get the air bags in their cars fixed, amid concern that a defect in the devices can possibly kill or injure the driver or passengers.
The Florida Highway Patrol still hasn't ruled on a cause of death in Tran's case.
Troopers have consulted an air bag expert as they probe her death.
