A woman who was injured in a Friday night car crash east of Battle Ground is improving in a local hospital.
Sharon Koistinen, 36, of Battle Ground is in serious condition at PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, a nursing supervisor said Monday night. She was in critical condition Sunday night.
Koistinen was injured in a two-vehicle crash that was reported around 9:45 p.m. Friday.
An initial investigation by the Clark County Sheriff’s Office indicates Koistinen was driving her car north on Northeast 194th Avenue and was turning west onto Northeast 219th Street as another car was traveling eastbound on 219th Street at a high speed. The eastbound vehicle hit the turning car, injuring three people, the sheriff’s office said.
The driver of the eastbound car was Jack A. Wisti, 25, of Battle Ground, sheriff’s office spokesman Scott Schanaker said.
