Oregon State Police trooper -errad Little said ¿rst responders were dispatched to the scene of a wreck at Highway 395 and Baggett Lane north of Hermiston at about 3:50 p.m. He said witnesses re- ported a silver Honda car was waiting in the turn lane northbound on Highway 395 and then turned left and was struck by a maroon Scion traveling southbound on the highway. Both vehicles came to rest near Baggett Lane. Hermiston Fire & Emer- gency Services personnel responded and removed the doors of the Honda to ex- tricate the driver and one passenger. Little said the driver was transported via air ambulance to an unknown hospital. The passenger was transported by ground am- bulance to Good Shepherd Medical Center in Hermis- ton, he said, as was the driver of the Scion. Little did not identify the names or ages of the vehicle occupants before they were transported from the scene, but all three occupants were women. There was no indication that intoxication contribut- ed to the crash, he said, and no charges were ¿led at the scene. He said, however, the investigation is ongoing.

Pedestrian hit, killed on 11th Street An 80-year-old Hermis- ton man died Friday morn- ing after he was struck by a commercial garbage truck. Hermiston police chief -ason Edmiston said of¿- cers responded to the 400 block of Southwest 11th Street to a report of a pe- destrian being struck by a vehicle at 6:38 a.m. Of- ¿cers found Leonardo L. Leal dead at the scene. The initial investigation indicated Leal was attempt- ing to cross Highway 207, or Southwest 11th Street, in the middle of the block while wearing dark-colored clothing, Edmiston said. He was struck by a Hermiston Sanitary Disposal vehicle operated by a 32-year- old male employee from Hermiston, he said. Based on preliminary in- formation, speed is not be- lieved to have been a con- tributing factor, nor were there signs of any type of intoxicating substances, Edmiston said, adding the driver and company were forthcoming and coopera- tive. The driver called 9-1- 1 and reported the crash. Edmiston said the de- partment will submit evi- STAFF PHOTO BY JADE McDOWELL Law enforcement investigate the scene of a fatal vehicle versus pedestrian crash on Southwest 11th Street near Highland Avenue. dence to the crime lab for analysis, and a full report will be sent to the Umatilla County District Attorney’s Of¿ce for review. “It’s a very sad day for the Leal family,” Edmiston said. “This investigation will remain open until we receive lab reports back, which could be several weeks.” Oregon State Police of- ¿cers assisted with recon- structing the crash scene.
