Head-on crash in Selah sends 3 to the hospital

SELAH, Wash. – A two-car, head-on collision in Selah sent three people to the hospital on Wednesday, according to Washington State Patrol Trooper Sarah Clasen.

Clasen says the crash happened at around 5 p.m. at the intersection of Harrison Road and SR-821. Crews arrived about 10 minutes later.

Three people were transported to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, one being a 17-year-old who allegedly caused the crash and the other two being 6-year-old passengers in the car that was hit head-on. That car’s driver was uninjured.

Clasen notes that roadways were closed for about an hour but have since been reopened. Both cars were destroyed as a result.

A press memo from WSP says the crash was caused by the 17-year-old failing to yield, which she is facing charges for.
