Sammamish woman killed in Oregon crash
Dec 14 2009
A Sammamish woman, Jenna Lee Ulrich, 22, was killed in a car accident outside of Huntingon, Ore., on Saturday afternoon.
Police say Ulrich was driving a 1982 Ford four-door eastbound on Interstate 84 near milepost 339, when she lost control of her car and was struck by a commercial truck.
She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Her passenger, Thomas Stroppel, 26, of Seattle, was taken to an Ontario hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The driver of the truck was not injured.
Oregon State Police believe the icy conditions were a contributing factor, and are continuing their investigation.
All three occupants were using safety restraints.
This year Ulrich was a senior at the University of Washington - she was named to the Dean's List in January.
