One person is dead after a semi-truck rolled over at the State Route 101 (SR 101) interchange from I-5, rolling down onto Deschutes Parkway below.

Washington State Patrol (WSP) troopers confirmed one person died after the crash despite performing life-saving measures at the scene.

“My best guestimate is that was a 20-foot drop from the overpass onto Deschutes Parkway,” KIRO traffic reporter Chris Sullivan said.

No word on how many cars were involved in the crash, as of this reporting.

SR 101 has been cleared by WSP crews. Delays are still in place on Deschutes Parkway, and are expected to last a few hours.
