Two men were injured near the Kent-Auburn border after their van left the roadway and rolled over at about 11:30 p.m. Saturday, July 28 along southbound Highway 167.
The 2012 Chevrolet Express van crashed in the single-vehicle accident under the South 277th Street overpass along Highway 167, according to a State Patrol media release. The cause of the accident remains under investigation but the report indicates that alcohol or drugs were a factor.
Paramedics transported the driver of the van, a 60-year-old man from Shippensburg, Pa., to Auburn Regional Medical Center with undisclosed injuries. A 21-year-old man from Hampshire, W.V., was transported with undisclosed injuries to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. A 15-year-old boy from West Virginia also was in the van and escaped injury.
