Fatal Crash In Parking Lot Claims Life Of 81-Year-Old Central Point Woman PHOENIX PD CASE - 06/25/26

NOTE: This is a Phoenix Police Department case. For media inquiries email Phoenix Officer Cooper Kamps: ckamps@pxpd.org

 

PXPD Case 26-685

 

On Wednesday, June 24th 2026 at 7:04pm our officers were dispatched to the report of a vehicle vs pedestrian crash in the parking lot of a business in the 4400 block of South Pacific Highway in Phoenix, Ore. First responders and bystanders attempted life saving measures, but tragically the 81-year-old woman was pronounced deceased at the scene. Out of respect for the privacy of the decedent’s family, her name will not be released at this time.

 

The 62-year-old Medford man driving the involved 2019 Toyota Tundra remained on scene and cooperated with officers. Due to the ongoing investigation into the circumstances leading up to the collision, no further details will be released at this time.

 

This case is being investigated with the assistance of the Serious Traffic Accident Reconstruction (STAR) Team, a specialized unit dedicated to investigating fatal and complex serious injury collisions. The team operates through a collaborative interagency agreement between the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, Medford Police Department, Ashland Police Department, and the Jackson County District Attorney’s Office.

 

We would like to extend our condolences to the decedent’s family, and extend our utmost gratitude and thanks to the bystanders who took it upon themselves to begin life saving measures prior to first responders arrival.

 

More information will be released as the investigation continues.
