A 16-year-old driver died and two passengers were injured in a single-car crash near Bothell early Saturday.
Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded around 2 a.m. Saturday to the scene of the crash in the 24200 block of Locust Way, just north of the King-Snohomish county line.
The Sheriff’s Office reported the vehicle “had possibly been involved in an eluding incident” with Lake Forest Park police officers before the crash, but hadn’t provided further information as of Sunday evening.
According to investigators, the vehicle was traveling north from King County and failed to make a right turn, then drifted off the west side of the road and struck a chain-link fence.
The driver died at the scene. Two passengers were taken to Harborview Medical Center for evaluation, according to the Sheriff’s Office.
Lake Forest Park police did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
