We have an update this morning on a traffic accident that we first mentioned as an alert on our Facebook Page Grays Harbor Scanner where a 16 yeard old Oakville girl was transported to the hospital for her injuries in a rollover accident east/south of Oakville Saturday night. 

The Aberdeen Fire Department confirmed Saturday morning that a fire that broke out at a residence in the 400 block of N Alder in Aberdeen did claim one life.  This was an alert that Grays Harbor Scanner first posted on their Facebook page, and we now have that official update. 

Hoquiam Fire and Police responded to a bicyclist down on the sidewalk on Adams Street off Chenault Ave on Tuesday, June 26, 2018 at 1511 hours. The 10-year old girl had suffered obvious head trauma and was transported from the scene to the hospital by HFD ambulance.

In talking with the other children in the area, the girl was riding down the hill on Chenault when she tried to turn onto Adams Street, but apparently was going too fast. The bike hit the curb which vaulted the child into the nearby fence.

The girl was not wearing a bike helmet.

Sgt. David McManus with the Ocean Shores Police Department says that Officer Chris Iverson once again played a vital role in rescuing a father who had become stranded in the waters off Ocean Shores after he tried rescuing his son who had been swept out on a riptide.
