Redmond Police are looking for witnesses related to a vehicle versus pedestrian crash. According to Redmond Police:
On Wednesday, December 21, at approximately 5:13 p.m. Redmond Police and Redmond Fire & Rescue personnel responded to the intersection of SW Black Butte Blvd and SW 9th Street for a vehicle versus pedestrian crash. The pedestrian sustained life-threatening injuries and was immediately transported by ambulance to Bend St. Charles hospital for treatment. The driver of the involved vehicle remained at the scene and cooperated with investigating officers.
The crash remains under investigation, and no additional details will be released at this time. The Redmond Police Department (RPD) wants to speak to the driver of a vehicle which was not involved in the crash but was at the intersection seconds before. We are looking for a “pickup” that had been traveling north on SW 9th St., just south of SW Black Butte Blvd, and turned left, westbound, onto SW Black Butte Blvd. We believe the driver may have information related to this investigation. We are asking the driver to contact the Redmond Police Department through non-emergency dispatch, 541-693-6911, and ask to speak to an officer regarding RPD Case Report 2022-35567.
RPD would like to remind drivers to remain vigilant, especially at night when it is more difficult to see, and the road conditions are hazardous due to ice and snow. Pedestrians are reminded to wear light-colored or reflective clothing during hours of darkness and to utilize marked and lighted crosswalks whenever possible.
