West Seattle traffic alert: Crash blocking 5200 block of Delridge Way

2:54 PM: It didn’t look like a major incident on the 911 log, but we’ve since learned from text and e-mail tips that a car crash in the 5200 block of Delridge Way has the road at least partly blocked, and drivers are having to turn around. We’re checking to see if anyone was hurt. (Thanks to Tim for sending the photo from a passing bus.)

6:03 PM UPDATE: According to Kyle Moore from Seattle Fire, one person was hurt and taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

      Thank you. Fire closed out of the incident relatively quickly and no medic unit was dispatched (as is usually the case for major injuries) so it’s not likely anyone was seriously hurt, but I’m still awaiting a reply from SFD.
