A road-rage incident Wednesday night, with two cars repeatedly crashing into one another as the drivers sped westbound on I-90, left both drivers injured and one of them booked into King County Jail.
The incident happened at 6:43 p.m. near milepost 13 (Lake Sammamish exit) as Desi C. Beltran, 29, and Hugo Yanez, 32, engaged in a road-rage incident that saw the two vehicles eventually roll-over and come to rest in the median.
Yanez fled the scene, according to the Washington State Patrol, but later was caught by Bellevue Police.
The roadway was blocked for more than four hours.
Beltran, of North Bend, was transported to Overlake Hospital for treatment. His 1995 Ford Explorer was totaled.
Yanez, of Bellevue, was booked into King County Jail. His 2007 Ford Freestyle was totaled.
Karen M. Hardtke, 27, of Cle Elum, a passenger in Yanez’s car, was not injured. A two-year-old male, also of Cle Elum, also was not injured.
