The State Patrol, which confirmed the death, said the 81-year-old man was injured in a three-car collision at the Interstate 90/Interstate 405 interchange Feb. 2.

The driver of the vehicle, Clover B. Gowing, Robert Gowing’s wife, was cited for following too closely.

The second car collided with a third vehicle.

Clover Gowing, 76, was treated at the scene.

The other two drivers were not injured.
