NEWS RELEASE
VEHICLE VERSUS PEDESTRIAN FATAL COLLISION
On September 19th, 2026, at approximately 11:05 pm, officers were dispatched to the 500 block of N 1st St for a vehicle versus pedestrian collision. Yakima Fire and AMR medical personnel were on scene quickly and rendered aid to the male, who was pronounced deceased at the scene. The investigation revealed that a 71-year-old male was crossing N 1st St at the intersection with East F St in a wheelchair. The male crossed in front of a southbound 2019 Chevy pickup truck which struck the male.
The driver of the pickup truck remained at the scene and cooperated with the investigation. Intoxicants are not suspected to be a factor in this collision. The investigation is ongoing.
Anyone with additional information may contact Officer Darius Williams at 509-306-3814, or the Yakima Police Department Traffic Unit.

There's an awful lot of assumptions being made in the comments, and only two people showing the slightest bit of concern about either the deceased, his family, or the driver. Where is the understanding and compassion toward a life lost, the family who lost their loved one, the driver who will remember this moment for the rest of his life and may be traumatized by the memory? My heart goes out to all of them, and whoever the man is, may he rest in peace.
Such a sad situation! Prayers for all involved!
Praying for both
Prays 🙏 🙏
Prayers!🙏🙏🙏
Praying for all involved
Prayers to the family
Another one!
Love and prayers for all!
Took a day to SAY IT
I wonder at his age if he was having some kind of heart attack or something that made him stop in the street long enough to get hit..... or dead battery on an electric wheel chair.
Your governor should make it illigal to operate vehicle.
So sad for everyone involved.
Was he at a çrosswalk? No one stops for pedestrians at the crosswalks anymore!! Not even the police!!..I get honked at for crossing at crosswalks because the dumb fuck driver doesn't know the law that pedestrians have the right of way!!!.prayers that wasn't the case in this matter...
My heart saddens for the driver and the family of the deceased man. 
I think we need more lighting💡at the intersections it’s to dark out there and people driving can’t see them crossing🦽or walking!!!🚶♀️😡
People always run out in front of me whenever they want to on N 1st.
What a sad situation
It probably took a day for the lab to due there job and send the report to the cops
A person ran right out in front of me tonight as I was taking my Grandson home. Didn't even use the cross walk on Yakima Ave.
No cops....a day late message to the public.
Bad management...
Isnt that near the jail and .........and he was in a chair? No cops around
This is very unfortunate but until yall do something about the homeless crossing wherever when ever in front of what ever it will continue to happen
DID YOU KNOW? - Patrol Division - ProAct Unit
While most people will only see a black and white Yakima police car driving around the community, even fewer get the opportunity to see some of the more unique things that occur in the Patrol Division. In this series of short videos, the patrol command team will inform the community on a few of the inner workings that occur everyday in Patrol. We hope you enjoy!

Thank you all for your service to our community!🇱🇷
How about you start doing something about all the illegal mufflers that are disturbing people. I heard them all night long, especially when the weather is nice. Some I can hear from 4 blocks away! Last time I checked, it was illegal to make your vehicle louder than stock.
