A judge has found a 66-year-old woman guilty of dangerous driving in connection with a crash at a London, Ont., Costco store, that led to the deaths of a young girl and her newborn sister.

In his ruling Friday, Judge Jonathon George found Ruth Burger guilty on charges of dangerous driving causing death and dangerous driving causing bodily harm.

Burger had pleaded not guilty to two counts of criminal negligence causing death and two counts of criminal negligence causing bodily harm.

Six-year-old Addison Hall died after she was struck, and her sister Rhiannon Bozek, who was delivered via C-section after the crash, died a week later.

Addisons mother and sister were also injured after Burger s car slammed into the store s front entrance.

The 66-year-old pleaded not guilty to charges of criminal negligence causing death, and criminal negligence causing bodily harm, that were laid after the July 25, 2014, crash.
