No One Injured After RV Crashes Into Motel

Remarkably no one was injured in a Monday evening motor vehicle accident which culminated in a recreational vehicle pushing a car into the room of a Hood River motel.  According to Hood River Police Lieutenant Don Cheli, the RV driven by a 47-year-old Vancouver woman was northbound on 13th Street near State Street at about 5:30 p.m. Monday when she says another vehicle cut her off, causing her to lose control of the RV.  Cheli says the RV struck a southbound vehicle, and then a northbound vehicle approaching the signal light at 13th and Oak.  The impact caused the motorhome to strike the nearby retaining wall at Tsuruta Park before crossing through the intersection at a high rate of speed and going into the parking lot of the Adventure Lodge, where it hit a parked car and pushed it into a room of the motel, which the RV also crashed into.  Cheli noted the motel was shut down for the week, so there were no occupants in the facility at the time of the accident.  No injuries were reported, and the investigation into the accident continues.  Anyone who might have information is asked to contact the Hood River Police Department at 541-387-5256.
