    Longview Man Charged after Napavine Collision Injured Six Minors—KLOG 100.7 News

    Lewis County prosecutors on Friday filed charges against the man accused of fleeing the scene of a Napavine collision that injured six children and fractured a woman’s vertebra, according to the Chronicle.

    According to court documents, Ruslan S. Trenda, 22, of Longview, said he had a psychotic episode and took “too much medication” before driving.

    Trenda faces felony charges of vehicular assault and hit-and-run, along with gross misdemeanor charges of hit-and-run of an attended vehicle, reckless endangerment and reckless driving.

    The Washington State Patrol (WSP) had initially listed DUI as another possible charge for Trenda following the incident.

    Trenda made a preliminary appearance in Lewis County Superior Court on Friday.

    According to a probable cause affidavit, Trenda was allegedly responsible for two hit-and-run collisions Wednesday night, both on Interstate 5. The second caused a woman driver and her six kids to be injured.

    Trenda is scheduled for an arraignment on August 13.
