Around 11:30 p.m. Dakota Phillips, 23, of Amboy was heading north on 503 at Mile Post 9 in her 2005 Ford F150 pickup, when she ran a red light at Northeast 244th Street. She crashed into a 1990 Toyota Cressida, driven by Capariel Cass, 24, of Ridgefield, who was westbound on Northeast 224th Street, according to the Washington State Patrol.
