A woman struck by a semi-trailer truck while on a bike Wednesday night has died, police said.

Lt. Robert King, a spokesman, said 28-year-old Kathryn Leah Rickson was hit around 8:32 p.m. at SW Third Avenue and Madison Street.

The truck was making a right turn from Madison onto 3rd Avenue when it struck Rickson, who was traveling eastbound on Madison.

She was taken to the hospital where she later died from injuries.

The driver of the truck remained on the scene.

Investigators from the bureau's traffic division are working with the Multnomah County District Attorneys Office.
