One person was killed after two vehicles burst into flames following a multi-car collision on Interstate 90 near Issaquah Saturday evening.

KING COUNTY, Wash. — One person was killed after two vehicles burst into flames following a multi-car collision on Interstate 90 near Issaquah Saturday evening, Washington State Patrol (WSP) said.

WSP said a vehicle was traveling westbound on I-90 at a high rate of speed when it approached a slower traveling vehicle and made a lane change. The vehicle reportedly made another lane change after passing the slower vehicle, lost control and left the roadway.

The vehicle struck a concrete structure and burst into flames, according to WSP. The slower vehicle that was passed struck some debris that was on fire and pulled over. WSP said the second vehicle caught fire from the debris.

One person was killed in the crash, but WSP said the other person was uninjured.

I-90 westbound lanes were closed for approximately three hours while crews worked at the scene of the crash.
