Federal Way Man Hit And Killed On Shoulder Of I-5


Posted on Sep 11, 2009

When a bus filled with party-goers broke down on Interstate 5 on Saturday night, the driver pulled the vehicle to the shoulder of the highway in South Seattle and a passenger went outside fix the bus. However, a passing pickup truck struck both the bus and the man, killing the bus driver and injuries multiple others. A Kia then struck the back of the pickup truck.

The Washington State Patrol was called to the scene of the I-5 accident in Seattle at around 2:30 a.m. on Saturday, where three different vehicles were involved in the crash and where multiple car accident injuries were reported. The bus passenger who was killed outside of the 1996 Ford bus was 26-year-old Scott Glover of Federal Way, Washington. Two others were seriously injured in the Seattle car accident, including the driver of the Kia, the passenger of the Kia, and the driver of the pickup. The injured were transported to the Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. The bus driver, from Renton, Washington, was not hurt, while six of the bus' passengers suffered minor injuries.

Police say that they suspect that the driver of the pickup truck was either under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Although the I-5 bus accident is still under investigation, police are considering several criminal charges for the driver of the pickup truck, including vehicular homicide. Two southbound lanes of I-5 were closed in the hours after the deadly car accident.
