Timmen Road just south of La Center was blocked after a dump truck and sedan collided at about 8 a.m.

A dump truck pulling a trailer with an excavator on it was traveling north on Timmen Road near Spencer Road when it collided with a southbound vehicle, La Center Police Chief Marc Denney said .

Denney said Bryne Kilgore, of Woodland, apparently drifted into the truck.

Clark County Fire & Rescue Division Chief Tim Dawdy said Firefighters extricated the 26-year-old woman from the vehicle, and she was taken to Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center with injuries he described as not life threatening.

The road was blocked in the area, causing a traffic mess, he said. The blockage was actually caused by another tractor-trailer, which jackknifed when trying to turn around and get by the crash, Denney said.

Denney said an officer was investigating the crash and a citation may be forthcoming.
