An unresponsive male was dropped off at the Legacy Salmon Creek Hospital Emergency Room entrance
On Friday (March 10) at around 4:57 a.m., personnel from the Clark County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to Legacy Salmon Creek Hospital for a suspicious circumstances call. Sheriff deputies arrived and found that an unresponsive male had been dropped off at the Emergency Room (ER) entrance to the hospital.
A pick-up truck arrived at the ER and summoned several medical personnel to assist. Hospital staff reported that there was an unresponsive male in the driver seat and there was another male who appeared to be driving the vehicle from the passenger seat of the truck. As soon as the hospital staff had gotten the unresponsive male out of the driver’s seat and into the hospital, the other male got in the truck and drove away.
The unresponsive male was declared deceased at the hospital. The identity is not being released pending notification to family members.
Due to the suspicious nature of the call, the Clark County Major Crimes Unit (MCU) was called to the scene to investigate. They are continuing the investigation.
Further updates will be made as more information becomes available.
