Two people were injured Thursday morning when their car was forced off the road by another vehicle near Lacamas Lake, officials said.
The collision happened just before 7:30 a.m. on the 800 block of Northeast 232nd Avenue in Camas.
“Sounds like there was a vehicle going north, attempting a pass in a place they shouldn’t have been passing,” said Sgt. Dennis Pritchard with the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.
The passing car forced a southbound vehicle off the road. It then struck a tree and its air bags were deployed, he said.
