Yakima man dies in rollover at Schrag Rest Area

A 25-year-old Yakima man died late Monday night following a single vehicle rollover wreck on Interstate 90 just past the eastbound Schrag Rest Area.

The incident was reported at 10:38 p.m. on April 10. The Lind Fire Department, Ritzville Ambulance and Washington State Patrol responded to the wreck.

Anthony J. Greco of Yakima was found at the scene, out of the vehicle. According to a WSP report, Greco’s 2000 Dodge Durango left the roadway to the north onto a dirt embankment in the median.

The vehicle sustained massive damage and Greco was ejected out of the passenger window.

The cause of the accident remains under investigation. The WSP report indicates Greco was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the wreck.

Ritzville EMTs quickly grabbed Greco and rushed him to East Adams Rural Hospital.

A Lind firefighter drove the ambulance so both EMTs could attend to the patient.

MedStar picked up the victim in Ritzville and flew him to Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane where he died as a result of massive injuries.
