A pedestrian who died after being hit by a driver last week in Gresham has been publicly identified as a 72-year-old Troutdale woman.

Patricia Dryden was hit Wednesday night on Southeast Burnside Road near Third Street, according to Gresham police. She was taken to a hospital and later died.

Police said Thursday that the driver was going east on Burnside when she hit Dryden. She was cooperating with investigators, and no citations had been issued.

Speed and alcohol didn't appear to factor into the crash, police said. Dryden wasn't in a crosswalk when she was hit.

Police urge anyone who saw the crash and has information about it to call 503-618-2719.
