A pedestrian died when she attempted to cross eastbound lanes of Interstate 84 near The Dalles on Friday.
According to the Oregon State Police, troopers responded around 3 p.m., to a vehicle versus pedestrian crash on I-84 near MP 85. Upon arrival, troopers discovered Eunice Spino, 47, from The Dalles, was struck by a vehicle and died at the scene.
The eastbound vehicle was a 2011 Honda Civic driven by Lynoure Won, 56, from John Day. Won is cooperating with the investigation. The investigation is still continuing but early indications suggest alcohol use by Spino was a contributing factor to the crash.
I-84 was completely closed for approximately one hour and traffic was diverted through the city of The Dalles. One lane was open for the rest of the investigation.
OSP was assisted by The Dalles Police Department, the Wasco County Sheriff’s Office, ODOT, and the Wasco County District Attorney’s Office.
