Posted: February 22nd, 2010 3:14 PM
On February 21st, 2010 at approximately 6:30 pm Clark County Deputies responded to a two vehicle injury collision at the 7300 block of NE 182nd Avenue. A privately owned dump truck had stalled partially in the north bound lane of NE 182nd Avenue at the 7300 block. The driver of the dump truck, identified as Clyde Andrews, a 53 year old Vancouver man, reported that it had been necessary to shut off the truck's lights in order to restart the truck. The driver was able to restart the truck and was rolling backwards into N/B lane of NE 182nd Avenue. A north bound vehicle operated by Adam Cushman, a 35 year old Vancouver man, impacted the rear of the dump truck with his 1996 Honda Accord. Cushman was pronounced deceased at the scene. Cushman was on his way home from work as a Portland Police officer.
At this time Traffic Homicide detectives do not believe Alcohol to be a factor in this accident in either Cushman or the driver of the dump truck who voluntarily submitted to a blood draw. The results of this blood draw are pending.
There were no citations issued for this accident.
There is nothing further to release regarding this incident at this time
