Springfield, OR — On Thursday of last week, December 11, 2014, a man was killed in Springfield after he was struck by a driver who was allegedly under the influence of alcohol. Police said that a case against driver Isabel Gloria McDaniel, 30, is currently underway after she struck and killed 67-year old Ortiz-Reynaga.
The accident happened on Thursday, at the intersection of 54th Street and Main. McDonnell was driving her vehicle at the aforementioned intersection that night when she crashed into Ortiz-Reynaga, who was crossing the road with his son.
