SHINE — Three people were injured — one seriously — when two cars collided on state Highway 104 near Shine on Sunday afternoon.
A Jeep Wrangler was crossing a lane of traffic while turning into the Shine Quarry at 9861 Highway 104 when a GMC Suburban slammed into it, State Patrol Sgt. Brett Yacklin said.

A Harborview nursing supervisor was unavailable Sunday night to provide patient status for Melius.
The drivers of the cars were taken by ambulance to Harrison Memorial Hospital in Bremerton.
