Highway 142 Accident Injures Three

Three people from Klickitat were injured in a Monday afternoon motor vehicle accident on Highway 142 eight miles north of Lyle.  According to the Washington State Patrol, a 40-year-old woman was driving a car eastbound on Highway 142 just before 3:30 Monday afternoon when she fell asleep, drifted over the center line, and collided with an SUV driven by a 45-year-old woman.  The SUV came to rest in the westbound ditch, while the car came to rest blocking both lanes and caught fire, sparking a brush fire on the eastbound bank.  The two drivers were taken to area hospitals, while a 14-year-old female passenger in the car was taken by LifeFlight to Portland’s Emanuel Hospital.
