Washington State Patrol trooper Keith Leary said that the Marysville truck accident occurred around 2 p.m. on Getchell Road near the intersection with 99th Avenue NE. He also said that the truck's brakes malfunctioned and appeared to have locked up and the back axle of the truck's trailer broke away, sending logs into the road.

According to Leary, the commercial truck caused an SUV to roll over into a ditch when the SUV apparently tried to avoid the logs. Getchell Fire Chief Travis Hots said that all six people in the SUV were taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Snohomish County sheriff's deputies and the troopers with the commercial vehicles unit of the State Patrol were investigating.

This was the second log truck accident in the past 2 days in east Snohomish County. On Thursday a truck spilled a load of logs on Highway 530, though no one was injured in that crash.

The chemical in question is known as bisphenol A (BPA), and it is found in polycarbonate bottles, CDs, DVDs and dental sealants. BPA been linked to neurological and hormonal damage, and cancer.

Up to now, the Food and Drug Administration has not labeled BPA as an unsafe product, but in April a task force was formed by the FDA to investigate new health concerns.

But in the meantime, private lawsuits are rolling in. In California, a class action is pending against the makers of the Nalgene reusable sports bottle, claiming the company downplayed risks that BPA in its bottles could sicken consumers

Chris Christoffersen and her daughter Melissa woke up to devastation last October. Their apartment complex was engulfed in flames.

"I watched everything from throughout my life - gone. Gone in just a few seconds," she said. But, with the donation of many household necessities, things were looking up until the family got a phone call from Farmers Insurance, which insures the apartment complex. According to Komonews.com, Farmers wanted $350,000 to repair the four units damaged in the fire.

"(I thought) I just lost everything in a fire five months ago and you want $350,000 from me?" Christoffersen said.

The fire was ruled accidental by the University Place Fire Department. It started in the area where Christoffersen's couch was pushed against the baseboard heater.

Approximately $1.7 million is the tentative settlement in the other case. But according to DSHS, the split between the 21 plaintiffs and their private Seattle attorneys hasn't been determined.

"We think this is a reasonable solution," said Steve Williams, DSHS spokesman.

According to YakimaHerald.com, “Columbia Legal Services in Wenatchee in 2005 won class-action status on behalf of about 4,000 day-care providers in Washington and a subclass status for all non-English speaking day-care providers in the state. They sought systemic changes within DSHS and unspecified monetary compensation for the nine Mattawa day-care providers.”

The girls’ family members do not know whether or not there was alcohol involved in the crash, all they know is that their daughter/granddaughter is gone – a week before graduating from North Thurston High School.

Fellow students say the teen’s death has made them appreciate life, and her family says if she was drinking they hope her mistake will teach others.
