Three Injured In Collision At Westlake and Crockett

Three people were injured Friday morning in a multiple-vehicle crash along Westlake Avenue North.

Just before 8:45 AM, police and Seattle Fire Department medics received reports of a four vehicle collision at Westlake Ave N. and Crockett St.

Officers and medics arrived and transported one adult male with life-threatening injuries and two patients with non-life-threatening injuries to area hospitals. Three other people involved in the crash, including a young child, declined medical treatment at the scene.

Investigators are still investigating the cause of the crash, and police have closed Westlake Ave. N between Galer and Nickerson St. as detectives collect evidence and interview witnesses. Traffic impacts in the area will continue throughout the day.

We’ll update this post with additional information as the investigation develops. For traffic updates, please follow @SeattleDOT and @SeattlePD on twitter.
