State Street was closed between 46^th Ave and 47^th Ave for approximately three hours while investigators from the Marion County CRASH Team processed the scene.

No citations or arrests have been made at this time.

The pedestrian was identified as Michael Sissell (61) of Salem. We offer our condolences to the family during this difficult time.
