It was an eerily familiar scene before Justin Carey on Monday as he entered the hospital room at PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center — only this time, the teen wasn’t the one lying in the bed.
He and his family came to see 34-year-old Paul Adams, who was struck Feb. 20 by an alleged hit-and-run driver while walking along a road in Vancouver’s Truman neighborhood.
Two tragic crashes allegedly caused by two members of the same family each cost Carey, then 16, and Adams one of their legs.
Five men suspected of a “mob theft” in Woodland were arrested after a high-speed pursuit Tuesday night.

An employee told police that five or six men had entered the business and grabbed multiple electronic devices including phones and tablets, valued at $2,900, the Woodland Police Department reported.
The suspects fled in a black Ford Expedition with no license plate, police said.
