ORCAS ISLAND — A ferry worker was hospitalized after he was crushed between two cars.
KOMO TV reports that the unidentified worker was crushed Friday evening.
The accident happened as the M/V Elwha was loading and unloading cars at the Orcas Island ferry dock around 5:30 p.m.
Bob Connor witnessed the incident and told KOMO News the ferry worker somehow became pinned between a truck and an SUV.
Ferries spokeswoman Susan Harris says the worker was flown by helicopter to Harborview Medical Center. His condition is not known.
