Vancouver, WA : Timmen Road south of La Center blocked after minor-injury crash on Wednesday, 21st September 2016

Timmen Road just south of La Center was blocked after a dump truck and sedan collided at about 8 a.m. Wednesday.

A dump truck pulling a trailer with an excavator on it was traveling north on Timmen Road near Spencer Road when it collided with a southbound vehicle, La Center Police Chief Marc Denney said.

Denney said Bryne Kilgore of Woodland, the driver of the sedan, apparently drifted into the truck.

Clark County Fire & Rescue Division Chief Tim Dawdy said firefighters removed the 26-year-old woman from the car, and she was taken to Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center with injuries he said were not life-threatening.

The road was blocked in the area, causing a traffic mess, Dawdy said. The blockage was made worse by a tractor-trailer that jackknifed when trying to turn around and get by the crash, Denney said.

Denney said an officer was investigating the crash and a citation may be forthcoming.

Further information on Kilgore’s status at the hospital was unavailable.
