Five people were hurt in a three-car, high-speed crash in Shoreline in which a car was fleeing from officers.
Just before 1:30 a.m. Friday, a silver Nissan was heading southbound on Aurora Avenue near North 192nd Street, KIRO 7 reports.
As the car approached North 160th Street, a King County Sheriff’s Deputy turned on his patrol car’s lights and sirens, and the Nissan fled at speeds of up to 90 mph.
When the Nissan ran a red light at an intersection, it crashed into two other vehicles on Aurora Avenue and North 155th Street.
The driver and three passengers in the Nissan were hurt. The driver of a black Lincoln limousine broke his pelvis in the crash. Both drivers were trapped and had to be removed from their vehicles by firefighters.
The third driver was not injured.
It is not yet known why the driver of the Nissan fled.
