VANTAGE – One person was killed and two Soap Lake residents were injured in a crash Thursday night on I-90 west of Vantage. A 2009 Honda Civic was heading east on Interstate 90 when the driver attempted to pass another vehicle. State troopers say the driver lost control on the wet road, causing the vehicle to spin out and hit the guardrail, before slamming into a rock wall sending the vehicle flying 20 feet off the interstate. The driver died at the scene. The two passengers in the vehicle, a 23-year-old Soap Lake man and a 50-year-old Soap Lake woman, were both taken to Kittitas Valley Hospital. The state patrol continues to investigate the crash.
