NEWS RELEASE - VEHICLE VS. PEDESTRIAN FATALITY

On 08/25/2026 at approximately 10:36pm, a motorist called 9-1-1 reporting they had struck a pedestrian in the 100 block of N 5th Ave. The preliminary investigation showed that the pedestrian, a 38-year-old Yakima woman, was crossing N 5th Ave mid-block when she was struck by a northbound vehicle.

YPD officers, along with Yakima Fire and AMR Ambulance responded, and the pedestrian was transported to Yakima MultiCare with significant head trauma where she was later pronounced deceased.

The Yakima Police Department Traffic Unit responded to investigate and interviewed the driver, who was cooperative with the investigation. Intoxicants are not suspected as a contributing circumstance for this collision.

I remember when I did my drivers test the only question I missed was where do pedestrians have the right of way my answer was everywhere they marked it wrong sais

My thoughts and prayers go out to the driver because I’m sure they feel so awful, the family of the deceased, and the first responders who had to witness the aftermath of this. It’s an all around terrible situation.

Give credit to the caller for doing the right thing. I've had people purposely jump out in front of me on 1st street.

This victim was wearing pink headphones. So she didn’t hear the car. However, I’m not sure why she didn’t see the vehicles headlights in her peripheral vision. 

I’m so sorry Katie …. U will be missed u were loved my many!! Love u so much u will be missed!!! God please be with her and her kids!! 💔💔💔😭😭tragic news to open Facebook and see this…..

So heartbreaking :( God bless her family.

So sad. Prayers of healing for the family, friends and first responders.

Why does this happen SO MUCH in this town. People need to pay attention. Im so sorry to the family.

So sad prayers being sent up

What is the speed limit in that area. I know going down Yakima ave you drive really slow, so if by chance you hit someone, you shouldn't be able to do that much damage.

So many pedestrian vs car fatalities lately, has anyone else noticed this?

Kali Alvarez ..... omg dude

The school at 72nd and Nob Hill is the worst school area for traffic control. Adults in the picj up area do not follow traffic rules. I will go way around to miss it. I too am worried about those guards. I always thot there should be a pick up spot on the east side of the church.

My prayers and condolences go out to her family but especially her boys!!! May God guide them all through this time of mourning

E. Walnut St people cross all the time. I usually stop and let them walk across the street.

😭heart broken today.

Yes they get in a hurry I had to jump out of the way

Prayers!🙏🙏🙏
