At about 9:45 a.m. Friday, a patrol deputy was in the parking lot of the casino, 1 Cowlitz Way at the La Center junction, when the deputy heard squealing tires and a crash on the frontage road leading to the casino, according to the sheriff’s office.
Upon investigating, deputies found a crashed silver Chevrolet pickup with the injured driver inside. The victim’s name was not released.
Neiman said the man and a passenger, who left the scene while police were investigating, were never inside the casino, and were not going to or coming from it.
“There is no concern to the public,” the sergeant said.
