A 41-year-old man struck by a car Friday night in Sandy has died of his injuries, police say. The

driver is being held on drunken driving and assault charges.

Michael Topliff of Sandy was in the intersection of Beers Avenue and Hood Street when he was struck by a 1999 Ford Escort, said Samuel Craven, a Sandy Police Department spokesperson.

Police and firefighters arrived on the scene at about 11:30 p.m. Topliff was transported to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center in Portland, where he died of his injuries Saturday morning.

The driver, Philip Krogstad, initially left the scene, Craven said, but returned on foot and turned himself in. The 32-year-old had a blood-alcohol level of 0.14, nearly twice the legal limit, according to police.

Krogstad was taken to Clackamas County Jail on accusations of driving under the influence of intoxicants and third-degree assault, Craven said, and could face additional charges. Bail was set at $32,500.
