VALLEYFORD, WA (June 18, 2020) – Police identified 66-year-old Polly Burland as the victim who got killed in a DUI crash on Highway 27 on late Thursday.
According to the Washington State Patrol, the collision happened near Gibbs Road.
Reports showed that 37-year-old William Ross of Fairfield was traveling southbound in a Chevrolet Silverado when he crossed to the northbound lane. As a result, the Chevy collided head-on with a Ford Taurus.
Ross did not sustain any injuries. However, paramedics proclaimed Burland, a resident of Spokane Valley and a passenger in the Ford, dead at the scene. In addition, they transported the driver of the Ford, 72-year-old Richard Soleta of Spokane Valley, to Sacred Heart Medical Center for unknown injuries.
