Serious Injury Accident, June 2

OSP Troopers are continuing their investigation into Monday afternoon’s serious injury crash on HWY 213, north of Molalla that sent three adults to the hospital. According to Sergeant Scott McLeod, On June 1, 2015 at about 3:44PM, a 2003 Honda Civic, operated by Jason M SHAW, age 30, of Molalla, was traveling southbound on HWY 213 when the vehicle crossed the center line striking a 2008 Chevy Impala operated by Janet J WOLLAM, age 68, of Portland head on. SHAW was taken by air ambulance to Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) for potentially life threatening injuries. WOLLAM and her passenger, Barbara MENDENHALL, age 68, of Vancouver (WA), were taken by ground ambulance to OHSU for minor injuries. Preliminary information indicates alcohol was not a factor but SHAW told investigators he fell asleep at the wheel. OSP was assisted by the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office, Molalla Fire, American Medical Response, and the Oregon Department of Transportation. Both directions of HWY 213 were closed for about an hour. Enforcement action is pending the conclusion of the investigation which is continuing.
