A motorist who stopped in traffic because there was a dog in the road triggered a four-vehicle crash in Grays Harbor County late Monday afternoon, according to the Washington State Patrol.
A 51-year-old Aberdeen woman, who was a passenger in one of the vehicles, was taken to Grays Harbor Community Hospital in Aberdeen with injuries
About 5:30 p.m. Monday, all four vehicles were eastbound on US 12, two miles east of Aberdeen, when one of the vehicles stopped for a dog in the road. That set off a series of crashes involving the four vehicles.
Two of the motorists face a possible charge of following too close, according to the state patrol.
Information about the dog was not immediately available.
