PORT TOWNSEND — A collision between a dump truck and a car on Cape George has left one person dead.
Heather L. Hendricks, 59, of Port Townsend was identified as the driver of a green, 4-door Honda which collided with the dump truck near the entrance to Cape George Colony.
The crash occurred around 10:15 a.m. when the southbound truck, which was towing an excavator on a trailer, swerved to miss the vehicle as it departed Cape George Colony.
The two vehicles collided and went into a ditch on the side of the road, leaving the front of the truck over the crushed Honda.
