EVERSON, Wash. (AP) — The Washington State Patrol says a 2-year-old girl was killed Friday by a truck backing out of a driveway in northwest Washington.
Trooper Keith Leary says he was told that before the truck backed up, the driver told some children who had been playing nearby to move because the truck was leaving. The collision took place in a cul de sac that’s part of a Nooksack tribal housing development in the Everson area.
Leary says the collision is under investigation but neither drugs nor alcohol was a factor.
