The SUV driver, a Marysville woman, was driving north on the highway around 4 a.m. when the vehicle hydroplaned, lost control, hit a barrier and stopped in another lane, according to the Washington State Patrol. A minivan with three people in it hit the SUV.
The minivan’s driver and two passengers, all adults from Mount Vernon, were taken to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett. At least one passenger wasn’t wearing a seatbelt, according to the state patrol.
