A vehicle hit a pedestrian at about 5:23 p.m. on Jan. 2 in the northbound 2200 block of 148th Avenue Northeast.

According to the Redmond Police Department (RPD) Twitter feed, an adult male pedestrian was seriously injured and transported to Harborview Medical Center. The man sustained nonfatal injuries to his chest and torso region, said Janessa Rosick, public information coordinator for the RPD.

The 39-year-old driver of a pickup truck was attempting to make a left-hand turn on a green light from Northeast 22nd Street onto 148th when he struck the pedestrian, according to Rosick. The driver told police that he saw another vehicle speeding up, proceeded to turn and didn’t see the pedestrian. One witness confirmed the report, Rosick added.

The driver was transported to Overlake Hospital and given a sobriety test. He was not suspected of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol and was uninjured.

The road near the accident scene was closed for some time and later reopened.

Rosick said a traffic camera captured the incident and investigators will review the footage.
