SHINE — An elderly Sequim man was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle and may face charges following a two-vehicle wreck on state Highway 104 at Shine Road, according to a State Patrol memo.
Donald J. McMeen, 86, was driving a 2017 Toyota Prius northbound on Shine Road about 2 p.m. Sunday, the memo stated. Meanwhile, Sonyja E. De Tiliere, 27, of Bellingham was driving a 2002 Toyota Camry eastbound on Highway 104 at Shine Road.
