TACOMA — A multivehicle crash in Spanaway left several people injured, including a child, Thursday morning.
Witnesses reported that around 11:47 a.m. two Dodge Chargers were driving at a high speed and racing one another. A driver in a maroon Charger tried to pass someone and rear-ended another vehicle, according to a Pierce County Sheriff’s Department news release. The driver lost control and that caused the crash at Military Road South and Spanaway Loop Road South, the news release said.
Six cars had to be towed and several people were injured and taken to the hospital, including a child. No serious injuries were reported at the time, the release said.
A few children who were in cars when the crash happened were taken to the hospital by their parents, said Sheriff’s Department spokesman Sgt. Darren Moss.
