3 killed in crash on Whidbey Island

At least three people were confirmed dead tonight after a suspected drunken-driving crash at the intersection of Highway 20 and Monkey Hill Road on Whidbey Island.

Two vehicles were involved in the crash just before 9 p.m, said trooper Mark Francis with the Washington State Patrol. Three more people were taken to a local hospital.

Island County Sheriff's Office also responded.

It is still unclear how many people were ejected and how the crash happened.

One person was booked for investigation of driving under the influence. More information was not immediately available.
