By KOMO Staff
BURIEN, Wash. -- A teen girl was injured and an elderly man was fighting for his life Friday afternoon after the man suffered an apparent heart attack at the wheel of his car.
Fire officials say the 73-year-old man was driving near the intersection of 116th Street SW and 4th Avenue SW when he apparently suffered a heart attack. The car then drifted off the road and struck a 14-year-old girl who was walking home from school. The girl was taken to Highline Community Hospital in Burien with what were said to be non-life-threatening injuries. Video from the scene showed paramedics performing CPR on the man, but his condition was not known. |
