Woman dies from injuries in downtown crash
The 40-year-old Mukiltean whose car was crashed into by the driver of a stolen pickup truck fleeing police Sunday, May 11, died from her injuries Wednesday, May 15.
The woman’s car was hit at Pacific and Rucker avenues by a full-size pickup truck believed to be stolen by Seattleite Joseph Strange, 33.
Strange may face first-degree murder charges for the fatal crash.
He was identified as stealing a Ford 350 pickup that police tried to stop in Bothell. Strange headed north on Interstate 5, and into Everett via Evergreen Way (Highway 99) before causing the collision on Rucker, which is the downtown name for Highway 99’s terminus.

Everett Police want help finding the driver of that vehicle and anyone who witnessed that collision at 1515 164th St SE to call the Everett Police Department TIP LINE at 425-257-8450.
