PORTLAND — A driver is facing charges for a crash that left one person dead and another severely injured after police say she struck another vehicle, sending it onto the front porch of a Portland home.

The Oregonian/OregonLive reports 21-year-old Rayna Johnson has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter, assault and reckless endangering. She was booked into the Multnomah County Jail in connection with the Saturday incident.

Police say Johnson drove a Volkswagen Jetta through a red light and hit the side of a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The collision had enough force to knock the Jeep onto its side and push it near the front door of the home.

One person was killed, another sustained serious injuries and two others, including Johnson, suffered minor injuries.

The victims haven’t yet been identified.
