Two people were injured when the driver of a pickup truck lost control making a left turn off U.S. Highway 12 in Packwood and struck a tree this morning.
Transported to Morton General Hospital were Dale A. Ryf, 55, of Packwood, and his passenger Jeanette C. Seaman, 46, from Tacoma, according to the Washington State Patrol.
Troopers called at 9:50 a.m. noted the 1995 Chevrolet 1500 was westbound going too fast when it attempted the turn into a private driveway. The truck was totaled.
Ryf was cited for second-degree negligent driving, according to the state patrol.
