The crash happened around 1:15 p.m. on Monday in the Woodstock neighborhood, according to a Portland police news release. Officers arrived at Southeast Steele Street and found a woman crushed between two cars.

Police said the woman was standing behind her parked car on the street and getting items out of her trunk when a car driven by Hayley Jean, 35, ran into her, crushing her and pinning her between the two cars.

The woman was taken to the hospital, and police say she had traumatic injuries to her legs. Jean was arrested and booked into jail on charges of second-degree assault, driving under the influence of drugs, reckless driving and reckless endangerment.
