at the intersection of 68th Avenue South and South 228th Street<\/a>.<\/p>\nThe semi-truck was northbound just before 6 a.m. on 68th Avenue South, according to an email from Kent Police Assistant Chief Jarod Kasner. The semi driver slowed to make the left hand turn (on a green arrow signal) onto South 228th Street and the SUV, who was eastbound on South 228th Street, reportedly ran the red light and collided into the back of the trailer.<\/p>\n
Paramedics took the Renton man to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle in critical condition, Kasner said. He was alone in the SUV. The semi driver was not injured.<\/p>\n
Alcohol does not appear to be a factor in the crash, Kasner said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
