Howell's family said she was struck by a vehicle.

Howell, who served as The Post's ombudsman from 2005 until late 2008, was the city editor and later an assistant managing editor at the Minneapolis Star in the 1970s, and managing editor and executive editor of the St. Paul Pioneer Press in the 1980s, according to the Star Tribune.

She left Minnesota in 1990 to become Washington, D.C., bureau chief for Newhouse Newspapers, according to The Post.
