Four people were injured, one critically, when a single vehicle rolled over and went down an embankment on Southwest 320th Street near Fishers Pond in Federal Way, Washington, early Tuesday morning. The crash happened just before 5 a.m. and left one occupant trapped inside the wreckage while another was ejected from the car. South King Fire and Rescue crews performed a technical extrication to free the trapped passenger before rushing the ejected victim to Harborview Medical Center in critical condition. The other three occupants suffered non-life-threatening injuries and were taken to area hospitals.
According to KIRO 7 News Seattle, Federal Way police shut down part of Southwest 320th Street while crews worked the scene and have opened an investigation into what caused the vehicle to leave the roadway. KOMO News reported that the car crashed through trees before rolling down the embankment, illustrating how far it traveled off the road. Neither outlet has said whether speed, road conditions, or another factor contributed to the crash. No arrests or citations have been announced as of this report.
