Oregon State Police (OSP) arrested the driver of a vehicle Thursday who was involved in a July 30, 2014 serious injury traffic crash on Highway 26 near Brightwood. The arrest came after an OSP investigation resulted in the man being indicted by a Clackamas County Grand Jury.
On September 4, 2014, OSP took TREVOR E. HUGHES, age 26, from Rhododendron, into custody after he turned himself in at the OSP Portland Area Command office. HUGHES was lodged in the Clackamas County Jail on the following charges:
* Assault in the Second Degree
* Assault in the Third Degree
* DUII
On July 30, 2014 at approximately 3:35 p.m., a 1994 Ford pickup driven by HUGHES was eastbound on Highway 26 near milepost 39 when it traveled across the center turn lane and into the westbound lanes. The pickup collided head-on with a 2004 Subaru Legacy station wagon that was traveling in the right westbound lane. After impact, the pickup rolled before coming to rest on its side.
The Subaru's driver, JOHN M. FLETCHER, age 18, from Battleground, Washington, was extricated and transported by LifeFlight to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) with critical injuries. He was using safety restraints and the car's airbags deployed. FLETCHER continues to receive treatment for injuries sustained in the crash.
HUGHES was transported by ground ambulance to OHSU where he was treated and released for minor injuries. He was using safety restraints.
OSP troopers and detectives from the Portland Area Command office conducted the investigation into the cause of the crash with the assistance of the Clackamas County District Attorney's Office (CCDA). Questions regarding an arraignment should be directed to CCDA.
