Four teens involved in Salmon Creek rollover wreck

Four teenagers on their way to Skyview High School were involved in a single-car rollover wreck Wednesday morning near the intersection of Northwest 36th Avenue and Creekside Drive.

Clark County Fire District 6 was dispatched to the wreck at about 7:40 a.m., said Dawn Johnson, a spokeswoman.

All four teens, three girls and a boy, were out of the car when firefighters arrived.

The driver, Alyssa Dawkins, 17, told firefighters she was coming down the hill when a car veered into her lane and she had to swerve to avoid it. Dawkins said she struck a pothole and lost control. The car rolled several times down an embankment near the Salmon Creek Greenway, coming to a rest on its wheels.

The driver of the other vehicle continued on without stopping, Dawkins told authorities.

All four teens were wearing seat belts, Johnson said. Two girls were transported to Southwest Washington Medical Center to be treated for what were believed to be minor injuries. The three teens’ identities were not released by authorities.

Dawkins and the boy were picked up at the scene by their parents.

The Clark County Sheriff’s Office is investigating.
