Mt. Vernon, WA (November 16, 2021)- Washington State Patrol Trooper Rocky Oliphant said that a crash on Skagit River Bridge has miraculously caused minor injuries.
The crash involved two vehicles, a semi-truck, and a car.
A car was struck from behind by a semi-truck and folded in half before the semi-truck “came to rest on top of the car,” Oliphant said.
The collision occurred before 11 a.m. Tuesday on Interstate 5 near Mount Vernon.
The southbound lanes of I-5 were reopened after 11:30 a.m., while the northbound lanes were reopened about an hour later.
The entire roadway was initially closed due to the crash.
Although details of the crash are still sketchy, a Monday storm has caused continuous flooding around Mount Vernon.
