Shorewood student hit in crosswalk

About 2:30pm Thursday, February 1, 2018 a 17 year old male student was injured while crossing the street next to the school.

He was in a marked crosswalk in a school zone crossing N175th St near Linden Ave N. He was walking northbound in the crosswalk when a car driven eastbound on N 175 failed to stop and struck him.

The female driver said her shoe slipped off just prior to her hitting the male. According to witnesses, the driver was going no more than 20mph when she struck the teen.

He complained of hip pain and was taken to Harborview.
