August 20, 2018 - On Monday, August 20, 2018, at 3:44 p.m., a Washington County Sheriff’s Office deputy came upon a traffic crash that had just occurred on Northwest Cornelius Pass Road between Northwest West Union Road and Northwest Old Pass Road in unincorporated Washington County.
During the investigation, deputies learned that a gold 2006 Chrysler Sebring was traveling northbound on Northwest Cornelius Pass Road when it crossed into the opposing lane of travel and struck a white 2015 Toyota 4Runner traveling southbound head-on.
The driver of the Chrysler, 40-year-old Shannon Cravens of Hillsboro, was transported by Life Flight helicopter to a local hospital with critical injuries. Alcohol impairment is believed to be a factor.
