MANSFIELD — Police are looking for witnesses in the cases of two young women who were killed while crossing major highways on foot in separate incidents in the past week police said.

   Monday evening, Candace L. Puckett, 26, of Westampton, died of multiple blunt force injuries after being struck trying to cross the northbound lanes of Route 130, according to police.
