Days reportedly collided with the passenger side of a 2010 Honda Element driven by Colleen Martin, 79, of Wilson Creek, who was traveling west on SR-28.
The Wrangler reportedly then struck a 2014 Ford Focus driven by Burton Turner, 58, of Grand Coulee, and a 2013 Chevrolet Express G25 driven by Shane Hobson, 39, of Quincy. The Wrangler reportedly rolled and came to a rest on its top, according to the Washington State Patrol.
