On December 13, 2017 at approximately 9:35AM, OSP responded to a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Hamby Road and Highway 20 just east of Bend. Preliminary investigation revealed a 2006 GMC Sierra truck was westbound on Hwy 20 when eastbound 2017 Ford Transit van turned into its path as it attempted to turn onto Hamby Road. The driver and sole occupant of the GMC truck was identified as 59 year old Michael Francis DELEONE from Redmond who was uninjured. The driver and sole occupant of the Ford van was identified as 48 year old Mark Douglas PRICE from Bend who was deceased as a result of the crash. Both drivers were properly utilizing their safety restraints and the airbags deployed in the GMC truck. PRICE failed to yield to oncoming traffic and is the contributing factor in this crash. DELEONE is cooperating with the investigation and is not suspected in any wrongdoing.
