A 17-year-old Maple Valley boy died early Tuesday morning, Aug. 13 after reportedly fleeing police and crashing his car near the Enumclaw\/Black Diamond bridge.<\/p>\n

Nicolaas Siebe De Vogel died of multiple blunt force injuries, according to an Aug. 14 report by the King County Medical Examiner’s Office.<\/p>\n

According to the Black Diamond Police Department, De Vogel was driving south on State Route 169 at about 80 mph around 7:08 a.m. The posted speed is 35 mph.<\/p>\n

A traffic officer caught up with the vehicle because the driver had to slow down due to traffic. However, the vehicle would not pull over for a traffic stop, and it picked up speed again at Green Valley Road to pass cars “in a reckless manner.” The officer decided to not pursue.<\/p>\n

According to Trooper Rick Johnson and a Washington State Patrol report, a short time later, the teen hit a “soft shoulder” on the highway, about a half mile south of Green Valley Road, lost control, and hit a ditch. The driver was ejected from the car, a 2006 Ford Mustang.<\/p>\n

De Vogel was pronounced dead on the scene when first responders arrived.<\/p>\n

The road was closed for about four hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
