A 32-year-old Lynnwood man appeared in Snohomish County court Monday, two days after he allegedly was driving on Interstate 5 in Marysville and crashed into a Washington State Patrol cruiser, killing Trooper Christopher Gadd.
The three-vehicle crash occurred around 2:52 a.m. Saturday on southbound I-5 in Marysville, according to officials. The Washington State Patrol said Gadd, 27, started with the WSP on Sept. 16, 2021. He became the 33rd WSP member to die in the line of duty in the agency's 103 years of service, according to the WSP.
In probable cause documents for the suspect's arrest, a deputy said the man admitted to smoking weed and drinking two beers earlier that night. The suspect is being held on $1 million bail, and the judge found probable cause for vehicular homicide and vehicular assault. KOMO News is not naming the man because he has not been formally charged.
