Occupants in both single-vehicle crashes were transported to area hospitals with injuries
On Saturday (Jan. 28), the Clark County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) Traffic Unit was called out to investigate two separate serious injury motor vehicle collisions.
The first incident involved a high-speed collision when a single vehicle left the roadway at about 3:30 p.m. near the 25600 Block of NE Manley Rd in Battle Ground. First responders with Clark-Cowlitz Fire and Rescue, American Medical Response (AMR) and CCSO arrived to find the two occupants still trapped in the vehicle and suffering serious injuries.
After working to free the occupants from the vehicle, they were both transported to an area hospital by ambulance with life-threatening injuries. Witnesses reported the vehicle, a silver Infiniti sedan with a black front fender may have been driving recklessly in the area prior to the collision.
While still investigating the first incident, CCSO deputies were dispatched to a second collision that occurred at about 5:30 p.m. near the 21900 block of NE 139th Street in Brush Prairie. It was reported a green lifted 1978 Ford Bronco had also been driving recklessly before leaving the roadway and rolling.
First responders with Clark County Fire and Rescue, AMR and CCSO responded to the incident. The occupants of the vehicle required major extraction before being transported to an area hospital with injuries. The driver exhibited signs of impairment at the scene.
If you have information relevant to either collision or if you witnessed either of the involved vehicles, contact CCSO Traffic Unit Detective Spak at (564) 397-4597.
Both cases remain active pending further investigation by the Clark County Sheriff’s Office Traffic Unit and Patrol Division. Additional information may be released at a later date, pending further investigation. All suspects remain innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
