Update: Woman taken to hospital after car flips in South Delridge

| Delridge | West Seattle news

Shortly after we took that photo, a tow-truck crew righted the car, which had flipped onto the south side of the 20th/Henderson intersection, just east of Delridge Way. No official information on circumstances at this point but police told us one person had been taken to a hospital.

5:15 PM UPDATE: This was a two-car crash, according to Seattle Fire spokesperson Kyle Moore, whose department does not investigate the cause but does treat the victims, so he was able to tell us that the person taken to the hospital as a precaution was the 28-year-old woman driving the flipped PT cruiser. She got herself and a 3-week-old baby girl out of the vehicle before Engine 11 arrived; the 25-year-old woman and 4-year-old in the other vehicle were not hurt.

8:02 PM UPDATE: A commenter who lives nearby says the 4-year-old was actually in the flipped PT cruiser and the baby in the other car.

To the mom of the baby…if you read this, tell us what car seat the baby was in. It must have done a good job!

I was at the scene as it happened right across the street from my house. The people and and cars are mixed up in story. The driver of the overturned PT cruiser was the one taken to the hospital, she was in the car with her 4 year old, they were helped out of car by myself and other witnesses. The woman and the 3 week old from the other car were uninjured.
