On Thursday, a 17-year-old Cashmere boy was hurt following a two-vehicle accident on Highway 2, outside of Cashmere.
According to the reports, the incident took place at the intersection of US 2 and North Dryden Road in which a semi-truck and a pickup truck were involved. Officers released a statement, “So he stopped at the stop sign and just kind of tried to jump into traffic.” “He was hit by the semi which ended up rolling him over, being a small pickup.”
On arrival, medics transported the boy to the hospital with minimal injuries. Officials confirmed a citation to the teen driver for failure to yield. The 62-year-old semi driver did not receive any injuries as a result of the collision. Westbound traffic was closed for approximately 45 minutes as crews clean up the fluids and oil that had spilled onto the road. Westbound Highway 2 through Cashmere reopened shortly before noon.
The crash remains under investigation.
