One dead in Wednesday crash on south shore of Hood Canal

A 50-year-old Belfair resident was killed Wednesday night in a single-car crash along Highway 106 on the south shore of Hood Canal.

Letricia E. Macomber was driving a red Tesla west on the highway at 7:30 p.m., about two miles south of the junction with Highway 3 in Belfair and before Sunset Beach, according to the Washington State Patrol. The car left the highway to the right, or the water side, coming to rest in a ditch after hitting multiple trees and a power box, WSP said in an incident report.

Macomber was wearing a seatbelt, according to WSP, and was deceased when responders arrived.
