The accident report update on a tragic crash in Spokane, Washington, revealed the authorities identified the man whose life ended. On Wednesday, May 27th, the Spokane County Medical Examiner’s Office disclosed the victim’s name as Kevin Witcher, 44.
The man’s life ended on Argonne Road on Monday, May 11th, in a tragic head-on collision. The crash report released at the time by the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office showed that the accident began with the driver of a Ford pickup, heading south on Argonne.
The driver was north of Bigelow Gulch Road at about 6:40 a.m. when he crossed the center median, and struck a Honda sedan driven by Witcher. The Ford then rolled and hit a GMC pickup before resting. The victim sustained extensive wounds in the collision, and the medics pronounced him dead at the scene.
The unnamed driver of the GMC did not sustain any wound, while the motorist behind the wheel of the Ford had non-life-threatening injuries. The police have not ruled out drugs or alcohol as factors in the accident, and they are still waiting for the results of a blood sample.
The accident report update did not state if the driver that caused the accident was cited and would face charges. There is no additional information at this time.
Under Washington laws, the family of a deceased victim can sue to recover damages from the person who has the liability in an accident. If the court finds the offender guilty, it will grant compensation to the tune of the loss suffered.
