Two injured in early-morning I-5 crash near Arlington
ARLINGTON — Two passengers were injured, one critically, when a northbound SUV struck a cement median along I-5 early Monday, the Washington State Patrol reported.
The passengers, two British Columbia women, were riding without seatbelts in a Nissan Pathfinder driven by a 22-year-old man from Quebec.
The driver, who wore a seatbelt and was not injured, lost control of the vehicle. The Pathfinder then spun left into a Washington Department of Transportation cement barrier at milepost 208 near Arlington about 2:43 a.m.
The impact caused the Pathfinder’s rear hatch to open, ejecting the passengers.
A 25-year-old Vancouver woman was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle and listed in critical condition late Monday.
The other passenger, 26, also of Vancouver,was taken to Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington.
