Four people are in Harborview Medical Center with serious injuries after a two-vehicle crash Monday night in SeaTac.

A teen driving a BMW sedan crashed into a white pickup Monday night. Two people in each vehicle were taken to the hospital.

Investigators told KIRO 7 that the teen, a 15-year-old girl, was driving illegally. She is suspected of drunk driving.

The crash happened at South 136th Street and Des Moines Memorial Drive South just after 9 p.m. and was so violent that it ripped a pickup in half. Fire officials say it appears someone ran a red light.
