The Mercedes was totaled and Carter was taken by ground transport to Skagit Valley Hospital and from there was airlifted to Harborview Trauma Center in Seattle with serious injuries.
A passenger in the vehicle, 30-year old Kolbee N. Yates of Sedro Woooley sustained minor injuries, was transported to Skagit Valley Hospital for treatment and later was released.
