LAPUSH — Distracted driving is being blamed for a one-vehicle rollover Tuesday on state Highway 110.

State Patrol Trooper Russ Winger said no injuries were reported in the 12:05 p.m. wreck near the highway’s milepost 6 and Wilson Road.

Kendra Kinghorn, 26, of Snoqualmie was driving a Kia Sportage port utility vehicle westbound when she became distracted, Winger said.

Her car veered off the road and rolled over into a ditch.

Brian King, chief criminal deputy for the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office, said that added that the passengers were a man and one-year-old child.

Neither were identified.

The child was securely belted into a car seat, which probably saved the child from injury, King said.

The State Patrol expected to cite Kinghorn with driving too fast for conditions, Winger said.

No traffic delays were reported.

Also responding to the wreck were LaPush police, Forks Ambulance and Three Rivers Fire Department.
