REDMOND, OR -- A Warm Springs man was struck and killed, overnight Monday, in a crash on Highway 97 on the north end of Redmond.

Just after midnight, Deschutes County 911 received a report of someone sitting on the median in an unlit section of the highway near the Maple Avenue bridge. A short time later, 52-year-old Corey Smith was reportedly in a northbound lane, where he was hit by a pickup. He was declared dead at the scene. The driver and passenger were unhurt, and are cooperating with the investigation. No citations have been issued. 

Northbound 97 was closed for three hours early Tuesday morning, for that investigation.
