1 Dies When 3 Cars Hit Moose

One person is dead, and both lanes of Interstate 90 are closed while law enforcement officials work to clear the scene after several separate cars collided with a moose. Washington State Patrol said three separate cars crashed into the moose running across the highway about 9:15 p.m., just west of the Stateline. “Sounds like a car eastbound hit it, then another westbound, and then another westbound,” said Trooper Troy Briggs/Sara Leaming, SR.

    The moose do seem to be getting closer to the populated areas or vice versa. I’d wager that we are more likely to have some sort of bad moose/human encounter before a bad wolf encounter with humans in this area.”

    That’s exactly what I was worrying about when I saw this story yesterday, Mike nailed it.

    Glad to hear you’re recovering, Mike.
