Yesterday evening, at 4:40 p.m., a 55-year-old man was hit by a car at S.W. 102 St. and 16 Ave. S.W. in White Center. The victim is currently in critical condition at Harbor View Medical Center.

The driver of the vehicle was a 50-year-old female who was arrested for suspicion of DUI and later booked into the King County Jail for Investigation of Vehicular Assault.

The driver was taken to Harbor View with serious injuries and is currently in critical condition. Initial tweets from the King County Sheriff’s Office reported the victim as having died upon arrival. This information has since been retracted with an apology to the family and victim from the KCSO.

More information to come as the story develops.
