TRI-CITIES, Wash. (AP) — A judge has set bail at $1 million for a driver who authorities say fatally hit a construction worker near Yakima last weekend.
Police say the driver’s blood-alcohol level was more than three times the legal limit. Jada Gibson is being held in the Yakima County jail following the death of Bonnie Stewart.
Authorities said Gibson was driving Saturday near the Yakima River Bridge when she hit the construction worker.
Stewart died and two passengers in the vehicle were injured.
