Motorcyclist injured in head-on collision on Highway 290
A motorcyclist was injured after a head-on collision Saturday evening on state Route 290.
Rachel Healy, 38, was driving her gray Hyundai Elantra eastbound on state Route 290 near milepost 18 at about 6:30 p.m., when she crossed the center line, striking a westbound Harley-Davidson motorcycle driven by Michael Gustafson, 47, according to the Washington State Patrol.
The man was transported to Deaconess Hospital.
Gustafson’s passenger, who was riding in a side passenger car, was not injured.
Drugs or alcohol were a factor in the collision, and Healy apparently fled the scene, the WSP said. No arrests have been made.
