Two people were injured Thursday in a three-car DUI crash on Interstate 205 in Salmon Creek, according to the Washington State Patrol.
A bulletin from the WSP said John Paul McElroy, 20, of Brush Prairie was driving a 2006 Kia Optima south on the freeway at 7:44 p.m. when he made an unsafe lane change and struck a 2019 Hyundai Sonata driven by Brenda L. Cline-Headley, 54, of Kelso and a 2017 Chevrolet Cruz driven by Sara A. Allen, 33, of Vancouver.
McElroy and Cline-Headley were injured and transported to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center. Allen was not injured, the bulletin said.
The bulletin said drugs or alcohol were involved in the crash, and that troopers will seek charges of driving under the influence, hit and run and malicious mischief against McElroy in connection with the crash.
