Olympia, Wa (December 10, 2022) – On Friday morning, two people were sent to a local hospital in a Highway 101 four-vehicle collision.

The authorities received the crash report at about 7 a.m. near Mud Bay Road Northwest.

According to the investigating officers, one of the vehicles was a log truck. It tipped over and spilled, causing logs to spill over one side of the highway. 

As a result, the authorities diverted traffic both directions off the highway. Troopers directed northbound travelers to Evergreen Parkway Northwest and southbound to Mud Bay.

Luckily, the victims only sustained minor injuries.
