A Castle Rock man is facing possible vehicular assault and DUI charges after he allegedly struck a semi-truck head-on while driving the wrong way on southbound Interstate 5 near Longview on Thursday.
The Washington State Patrol responded to the crash at milepost 42 on southbound I-5 at approximately 11:25 p.m. on Nov. 21.
Daren D. Bowlby, 58, of Castle Rock, was reportedly driving a white 2018 GMC pickup northbound in the right southbound when he struck the semi head-on, causing it to leave the roadway through the right guardrail and roll.
The driver of the semi, identified by the Washington State Patrol as Brian C. Campbell, 57, of Salem, Oregon, was transported to PeaceHealth St. John Medical Center in Longview for treatment.
Bowlby was not injured.
The Washington State Patrol determined that drugs or alcohol were involved and that wrong-way driving was the cause of the crash.
