Ore. Bicyclist Charged With Manslaughter
Sep 12 12:21 PM US/Eastern
CORVALLIS, Ore.
A bicyclist was charged with manslaughter after he ran through a stop
sign and struck and killed a 71-year-old woman, police said Monday.
Jean Calder died at Good Samaritan Hospital after she was struck Friday
night as she crossed a street at an unmarked crosswalk, Corvallis
police Capt. Ron Noble said.
Christopher A. Lightning, 51, was charged with manslaughter and
reckless driving.
"A car and a bicycle are both vehicles and if they are operated in a
way that could be criminal, then charges are filed equally in both
situations," Noble said. "He was going right through a stop sign."
Lightning was being housed in Benton County jail with bail set at
$57,500. He will be given a court-appointed lawyer at his arraignment
in Benton County.
