Oregon State Police (OSP) arrested the driver of a vehicle Wednesday
afternoon following an investigation into Sunday's single vehicle crash along
Highway 30 about fourteen miles west of Clatskanie that injured four people, one
seriously.
OSP Senior Trooper Robin May arrested JESUS ISRAEL OSORIO, age 34, from
Kelso, Washington, after he was released from Oregon Health & Science
University where he has been treated since the September 9, 2012 traffic crash.
OSORIO was arrested as a Fugitive From Justice based upon an outstanding Cowlitz
County, Washington warrant for Unlawful Delivery of a Controlled Substance -
Heroin. He was lodged in the Multnomah County Jail. OSORIO was also cited for No
Operators License, Driving Uninsured, and Fail to Drive Within a Lane.
On September 9, 2012 at approximately 2:20 p.m. a 1999 Ford Explorer with
four occupants driven by OSORIO was eastbound on Highway 30 near milepost 74
traveling downhill when it drifted off the roadway. The driver over-corrected
and lost control causing the vehicle to roll 3 times before coming to rest on
its wheels in the eastbound lane.
OSORIO was transported by LifeFlight to Oregon Health & Science
University with serious injuries.
The three passengers received non-life threatening injuries. The adult
female in the right front seat was transported by ambulance to Columbia Memorial
Hospital. A teenage male in the left rear seat was transported to Columbia
Memorial Hospital. A teenage female in the right rear seat was transported to
St. Johns Medical Center. Their names were not provided for this update news
release.
OSP troopers from St. Helens and Astoria offices responded to the scene.

the scene. The highway was closed about 45 minutes.
