A Longview Fire crew was dispatched to an SUV that had rolled several times and landed upside down near 26th Avenue on Industrial Way.
Upon the arrival of the crew, they found several bystanders attempting to rescue the SUV occupants. The bystanders could rescue a newborn and 5-year-old from an SUV, and an adult had exited.
Law enforcement used a wench on a police SUV to roll the SUV, allowing firefighters to free the trapped adult.
The driver was pronounced dead around 8:40 a.m. The two children and the adult were taken to a local hospital.
The cause of the accident is being investigated by the Washington State Patrol. Longview Police, Cowlitz County Sheriff, and Longview Fire assisted at the crash scene.
