PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — One person is dead after a crash on Highway 26 and Oregon State Police say they think the weather could’ve been the cause.

At around 3:40 p.m. Friday, Police responded to the two-vehicle crash near milepost 53.

The Honda collided head-on with a Subaru and Martin was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Subaru’s driver was taken to a hospital with minor injuries.
