The SUV involved in a fatal crash near the National Zoo last week was registered to the Swiss Embassy.
The driver of the SUV, 39-year-old Kamal Mortada, struck and killed a pedestrian in a crosswalk in the 3100 block of Connecticut Avenue Oct. 6, according to an accident report.
Mortada listed the Swiss Embassy as his address and the owner of the vehicle. He stayed at the scene and has not been charged.
An embassy spokesman did not respond to a message seeking comment about the crash or Mortada's role at the embassy.
The victim, Trudith Rishikof, of Washington, served as a board member for Alliance Francaises of Washington for 18 years, six as president.
