The person killed on Friday afternoon has been identified as 62-year-old Steven Ray Tomlinson of Camas.
According a statement by Portland police, Tomlinson, driving a 2005 Jeep Cherokee, began turning westbound on Marine Drive from 148th Avenue on Friday when he was struck by 69-year-old Richard Ramsay of La Pine, Oregon, driving a 2015 Max semitrailer. Ramsay was driving eastbound on Marine Drive.
Tomlinson’s vehicle crashed over the embankment on the north side of Marine Drive and came to rest on the bike path, police stated. Good Samaritan’s pulled Tomlinson from the vehicle and attempted CPR but their efforts were not successful.
After colliding with Tomlinson’s vehicle, police said Ramsay had a slower-speed collision with a 2013 Audi Q7 being driven west on Marine Drive. Neither driver was injured in the crash.
