TACOMA — An accused hit-and-run driver in Washington has been taken into police custody after he allegedly struck and killed the driver of a golf cart and then T-boned another vehicle.

The News Tribune reported that the man was arrested at a house Tuesday after he fled the scenes.

Pierce County sheriff’s spokesman Ed Troyer said a car had been traveling southbound on a road in the Key Peninsula when it struck the golf cart. The driver of the cart died at the scene and a passenger was taken a nearby hospital.

Troyer said the car fled the scene and T-boned a vehicle a few hundred feet away. The man driving the car then got out and fled into the house, where he was arrested.

The driver of the T-boned vehicle was also taken to a nearby hospital.
