An 81 year-old Burien woman was pronounced dead at Harborview Medical Center on Jan. 28 after she was involved in an automobile accident.
The accident happened about 1 p.m. at South 160th Street and the Ambaum Cutoff South in Burien.
A 61 year-old Des Moines woman was driving a 1992 Dodge Dakota pick-up eastbound on S. 160th. Investigating detectives believe she went through a red light and her vehicle hit a 1994 Pontiac Bonneville that was northbound on the Ambaum Cutoff.
After the initial impact, the Bonneville continued northbound across S. 160th and struck another vehicle facing southbound. That driver was taken to Highline Medical Center with minor injuries.
The driver of the Bonneville was taken to Harborview where she subsequently died. The driver of the Dodge was admitted in serious condition.
