Woman hit in Gresham crosswalk by driver accused of smoking pot has died

A woman struck by a Toyota Prius Monday while walking in crosswalk less than a mile from her home in Gresham has died.

Elizabeth Irma Kemble, 46, of Gresham suffered serious injuries, including a broken back and broken pelvis, in the violent 8 a.m. incident at East Burnside Street and Northeast 181st Avenue. First responders originally characterized her injuries as not life-threatening.

After being hospitalized, Kemble's condition worsened. She died shortly after 7 p.m. at OHSU Hospital, the Gresham Police Department reported Tuesday morning.

The driver of the car, Jacob McLeod Walters, 27, of Northeast Portland stayed at the scene and cooperated with police. Witnesses told police the driver was smoking marijuana seconds before the crash.

The initial police investigation confirmed Walters had been smoking pot, police said. The degree to which marijuana was a factor is still under investigation, however, they said.

Walters was arrested and charged with fourth-degree assault, reckless driving and reckless endangerment.

His Prius slammed into the pedestrian hard enough to send her flying 35 feet, they said.

Witnesses to the collision uniformly said the light was no longer green when Walters reached the west side of intersection, said Gresham police public information officer John Rasmussen. Some said the light was red, while others said it was yellow, he said.

Either way, the driver was legally on notice to either stop or proceed with caution, Rasmussen said. The Prius nonetheless continued through the intersection and struck Kemble in a marked crosswalk on the east side of the intersection, he said.

Look it up. Crime and traffic deaths down in Colorado since legalization.

So you think pot makes people drive better?

Stoned people drive better, just slower

I am personally interested in trying drug. Can have it under control, like right before the sleep or something.
