Shoreline Deputy on road to recovery after vehicle crash

Patrol car after accident

Shoreline Officer Travis Gray is on a slow road to recovery after his vehicle crash October 19 while responding to a call. (see previous article).

Gray was on his way to assist another deputy who was chasing a suspect on foot in Shoreline near Fred Meyer at N 185th and Aurora Ave N. That suspect was later caught and arrested. Officer Gray crashed near Richmond Beach Rd and Dayton Ave N.

When aid arrived, they found the wrecked patrol car. Gray was out of the car and conscious, but disoriented with a head injury.

He suffered a fractured skull, had to be intubated at the scene and was initially in intensive care at Harborview.

He’s doing better and has been released from Harborview. It looks like with all the physical therapy, occupational therapy and tests, it may be the end of December before he’s cleared to return to work.
