Blockbuster didn’t return a phone call for comment. Andrew Modine Modine was interviewed in regard to the incident, but no charges were fi led at the time. A subsequent investigation determined T. Modine had been riding as a passenger in the truck while it was driven by his brother. “Both brothers were headed to Thomas Modine’s residence on Ventura Avenue,” said KPD Deputy Chief Jeff Kuhns. KPD Sgt. David LeDay, a crash reconstructionist, determined that T. Modine fell from the pick-up as A. Modine drove the vehicle north on Shoreline Drive North and made a left turn to travel west on Ventura Avenue. Kuhns said T. Modine fell GRASSROOTS GOVERNMENT The Keizer Traffi c Safety, Bikeways and Pedestrian Committee had its most recent meeting June 9. Here’s what was discussed: • Keizer resident Rhonda Rich appealed to the committee seeking signage or some sort of crosswalk designation between the dog park at Keizer Rapids park and The Big Toy due to increased pedestrian traffi c traversing the Walsh Way, which leads to the boat ramp. • Committee member Pat Fisher shared an email from Nicole Carlson requesting pedestrian safety audit on River Road North. The audit would help determine critical areas for pedestrian traffi c. Keizer Street Division Manager Mike Griffi n said a similar study is planned for the 2017-18 fi scal year. • Griffi n reported on two projects on the horizon: out of the passenger’s seat. “There are no back seats. There actually was not even a true bed on this vehicle as it had been modifi ed at some point in time. It appears he fell out the of the door as the vehicle rounded the corner,” Kuhns said. A probable cause statement alleges A. Modine was driving under the infl uence of intoxicants when the incident occurred. A. Modine was lodged at the Marion County Correctional Facility where he was charged with one count of criminally negligent homicide and one count of driving under the infl uence of intoxicants. He was released after posting $25,000 bail. Anyone with information about T. Modine’s death is asked to contact Howden at 503-390-3713, ext. 3525. local weather sidewalks along Delight Street North and a potential pedestrian crossing on Lockhaven at Celtic Way North. Regarding Delight Street improvements, options include widening the shoulder for a pedestrian path or a separated path along the asphalt. The recommended improvement will be scheduled for the 2018-19 fi scal year. A pedestrian crossing at Celtic Way would require a $2,500 warrant study before further action. Installing a crosswalk would cost about $15,000 for fl ashers, one each for east and westbound lanes, and $1,200 for crosswalk striping. 10 YEARS AGO City will sell land to pay for city hall The Keizer City Council is moving ahead with plans to construct a $13.4 million civic center, opting to pay for the construction by selling off city land rather than seeking voter approval of a bond measure in later months. 15 YEARS AGO Torch sets hedge ablaze A man using a propane torch to burn weeds in his lawn set fi re to an arbor vitae hedge at his North Elizabeth Street home. sudoku Enter digits from 1-9 into the blank spaces.
