Motorcyclist flown to Seattle hospital after crash in Lewis County

A 38-year-old Tacoma man was flown to Seattle Saturday evening after a crash in Lewis County, according to the Washington State Patrol.

Two other people involved in the crash — a 52-year-old Randle woman and a 9-year-old child — were not injured.

About 8 p.m., the Tacoma man, plus the woman and child in a pickup truck, were headed west on U.S. 12, between Morton and Glenoma.

Troopers say the woman in the pickup began to turn left when the motorcycle crashed into the rear of her vehicle.

The crash is under investigation.
