Police seek witnesses to Hit and Run Collision on SR 18 caused by semi

Detectives are looking for witnesses to a near head-on collision yesterday evening on SR 18 near Snoqualmie.

According to Washington State Patrol, just before 7PM on Wednesday, June 19, 2019, they received a report of a collision on SR 18 near the Raging River at milepost 26.

When troopers arrived they found a Nissan Rogue and a Tesla Model S blocking both eastbound and westbound lanes. It was quickly determined that an unknown semi-truck had caused the collision, but did not stop.

WSP said the semi and the Nissan were traveling westbound on SR 18 and the Tesla was traveling eastbound when the semi struck the Nissan, forcing it into the eastbound lane which caused it to collide with the Tesla. Luckily, only minor injuries were reported.

WSP detectives are seeking any witnesses that may have information to help identify the semi that caused this collision. Anyone with info is asked to contact Detective Ruth Medeiros at (425) 401-7788 or email at
Ruth.Medeiros@wsp.wa.gov.
