KINGSTON — Two adults have been transported to a local hospital with potentially life-threatening injuries after an early morning crash on Highway 104 at Hansville Road near Kingston, Jan. 20.
Witnesses called 911 shortly after 6 a.m. to report that the medium-sized SUV, eastbound on 104, had run the red light at Hansville Road, Michele Laboda of Noth Kitsap Fire & Rescue reported. The SUV left the roadway and crossed a berm, landing upright in a small retention pond north and east of the intersection behind the USA Express gas station in the Kingston Crossing shopping center.
NKF&R crews found one patient conscious and the other unconscious. An additional paramedic unit was called from Poulsbo Fire Department. Animal Control was called to assist with two large dogs who were apparently riding unrestrained in the vehicle at the time of the crash, Laboda reported.
The Washington State Patrol is investigating the cause of the incident. Any further information will be provided by WSP.
