Police look for third vehicle in fatal Laie crash
Police are looking for a third vehicle involved in a crash Thursday in Laie that resulted in the death of an 82-year-old Laie man who was a passenger in a 2010 Toyota RAV4.
Police said the RAV4 driver, a 77-year-old woman, attempted to turn left into a driveway at or near 55-164 Kamehameha Highway, crossed the center line, and collided head on with a 2010 Nissan Armada. The Armada stayed at the scene.
But the police investigation revealed damage to the rear of the RAV4, and fresh broken glass, indicating a third vehicle was involved, police said.
The third vehicle is described as large, possibly a light colored sport utility vehicle, truck or van. The vehicle fled and may have damages to the left front or left side, police said.
The crash occurred at 3:27 p.m. Thursday on Kamehameha Highway south of Pekelo Place.
The RAV4 driver, her front-seat passenger, the Nissan driver, a 54-year-old man, were all taken in serious condition to the Queen’s Medical Center.
