Friends of Jessica Osborne — who was struck by a car on Rosa Parks Way in North Portland and left for dead on April 3 — have planned a benefit show to raise money for her medical bills.

The collision left Osborne in the hospital with three cracked vertebrae, collapsed lungs, scrapes and bruses, and a ruptured spleen (that was later removed). The injuries will keep her out of work for eight weeks and the hospital bill is close to $100,000.

Friends have lined up bands (Stag Bitten, Play/Start, Star Kaleider, and others) and a prize raffle to help raise money.
