Teen badly hurt in wreck at Hoodoo

A Bend teen was seriously injured last Friday night when the station wagon he was driving was struck while pulling onto Highway 20 from the Hoodoo Mountain Resort.

According to Oregon State Police, on February 23, at approximately 8:30 p.m., a 2000 Subaru Legacy station wagon driven by Jeffrey Ray Pinley, age 19, from Bend, was traveling northbound out of the Hoodoo ski area when it pulled onto Highway 20 into the path of an eastbound 2001 Ford F350 pickup.

The pickup crashed into the driver's side of the Subaru.

Pinley was seriously injured and transported by air ambulance to St. Charles Medical Center in Bend. He was listed in stable condition last weekend.

The three Subaru passengers received minor injuries. The Ford pickup driver's name is not available.

Oregon State Police troopers from the Albany and Bend area command offices are investigating the crash.
