MARION COUNTY CRASH TEAM INVESTIGATING PEDESTRIAN FATALITY
Just before 10 AM this morning 911 callers reported a pedestrian had been struck by a vehicle on State Street near 47th Ave SE. Deputies and emergency medical services personnel responded to the scene, lifesaving efforts were attempted at the scene, tragically the pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene.
State Street was closed between 46th Ave and 47th Ave for approximately three hours while investigators from the Marion County CRASH Team processed the scene. Investigators determined a silver four-door BMW was going eastbound when the pedestrian was struck. The 53 year old male driver remained at the scene and is cooperating with the investigation. No citations or arrests have been made at this time.
The pedestrian was identified as Micheal Sissell (61) of Salem. We offer our condolences to the family during this difficult time.
The Sheriff’s Office was assisted by Marion County District Attorney’s Office, Marion County Fire District #1, Marion County Public Works, and the Marion County Medical Examiner's Office.
