Four teenagers sustained serious injuries in a one-car crash on Ocean Beach Road, north of Hoquiam, Thursday afternoon.

Grays Harbor County Undersheriff Brad Johansson said the wreck occurred shortly after 1:30 p.m. in the 500 block of Ocean Beach Road.

“The vehicle was travelling south when it left the roadway and rolled multiple times. The vehicle was occupied by two 18-year-old males and two 19-year-old males from Tacoma,” said Johansson. “One of the occupants was ejected from the vehicle and another occupant was trapped under the vehicle.”

All four were airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. As of Friday morning three of the occupants were listed as being in stable condition and one occupant was listed as being in critical condition. After the initial investigation alcohol and drugs are not suspected, but speed does appear to be a factor, said Johansson.

Along with the Sheriff’s Office, responding units included, Hoquiam Police Department, Aberdeen Fire Department, Hoquiam Fire Department, Fire District 6 (N. Hoquiam), Fire District 7 (Copalis Beach), Fire District 8 (Pacific Beach), Fire District 16 (Copalis Crossing).
