COLLISIONS

• Wrecks due to black ice sent at least two people to hospitals yesterday evening and night. “It was extremely icy,” Riverside Fire Authority Casey McCarthy said this morning. Crews responded about 5:45 p.m. to the 1400 block of Bunker Creek Road where an airbag deployed after a car ran into a ditch, according to McCarthy. The driver was transported to Providence Centralia Hospital to be evaluated, McCarthy said. A rollover accident around 8 p.m. drew members of Lewis County Fire District 6 toward Centralia-Alpha Road near Beck Road, but they were cancelled before they arrived because there was no injury, according to Firefighter Mike Goodwillie. And about 9 p.m., a 28-year-old Rainier man sustained minor injuries when he struck a power pole on state Route 507 just north of Centralia, responders said. The Washington State Patrol reports Joseph S. Biggerstaff was northbound and lost traction on an icy roadway at a corner. He was taken to Providence St. Peter Hospital in Olympia, according to the state patrol. At mid-morning today, a driver southbound on Interstate 5 near Maytown escaped serious injury when his truck rolled and landed on its top, according to West Thurston Regional Fire Authority. The patient declined to go to the hospital. Weather forecasters this afternoon say tonight should be mostly clear, with temperatures falling into the 20s in many areas and fog towards morning in the south and central interior.
