SEQUIM –– Three people were transported to Olympic Medical Center after a two-vehicle wreck partially blocked part of U.S. Highway 101 east of Sequim on Monday.

Port Angeles resident Barbara Sadler, 64, crossed the center line and sideswiped an oncoming vehicle one mile east of Sequim, according to the State Patrol. Sadler’s PT Cruiser stopped in the eastbound lane while a Nissan Sentra, driven by 75-year-old Poulsbo resident Janice Counselor, fell 15 feet over the westbound embankment. Julie Delgado, 71, was also in Counselor’s car. Sadler and Delgado were both treated and released from the Port Angeles hos-

pital by Monday afternoon. Counselor remained there in satisfactory condition. Both vehicles were totaled. The wreck was first reported at 9:15 a.m. near Barker Road and initially blocked all lanes of the highway. By 10 a.m., single-lane, alternating traffic was open. The wreck was cleared by 10:20 a.m. Sadler was cited for failure to stay to the right of the center line, according to State Patrol.

PORT ANGELES — The city-sponsored PA Forward Committee, chaired by Mayor Patrick Downie, has recommended that the City Council pass further restrictions on panhandling. Council members will discuss the panel’s recommendation at their regular meeting tonight. The council meeting is at 6 p.m. at City Hall, 321 E. Fifth St. In a separate report by interim Police Chief Brian Smith, council members also will hear an update on Downie the police department’s 9-year-old downtown resource officer program. Staffing challenges include dealing with “aggressive panhandling, trespassing and unlawful camping and property crime,” Smith said in a memo to the council. Under city ordinance, people cannot “aggressively beg . . . with the intent to Kidd intimidate another person into giving money or goods.” It is a Class 2 misdemeanor under which police can issue citations but not make arrests. Council members also will hear an update on issues surrounding two problem areas where panhandling occurs: a vacant building near the busy East Front Street-Lincoln Street intersection and an adjacent, privately owned 208 E. Front St. parcel that was fenced off June 8 to prevent panhandlers from congregating there. TURN
