PORTLAND, Ore On Friday, the Portland Police Bureau arrested a hit-and-run suspect accused of killing a pedestrian with his car.
Jason McFadden, 44, was driving westbound on Southeast Stark Street when he allegedly struck 27-year-old Daniel Lopez-Herrera at the intersection of 160th Avenue on the evening of Nov. 17, police said in a press release.
Police said Lopez-Herrera was walking in a crosswalk and had activated the flashing lights that let drivers know when a pedestrian is crossing the street.
Based on witness accounts, the victim was likely already halfway across the westbound lanes when he was hit by a silver sedan that was speeding with its headlights turned off.
