Multi-vehicle wreck temporarily blocks U.S. Highway 101 at Del Guzzi Drive in Port Angeles

PORT ANGELES — A three vehicle chain-reaction wreck blocked part of U.S. Highway 101 at Del Guzzi Drive on Sunday morning.

At about 10 a.m., Jacob Henry Gloor, 22, of Sequim was driving a white Buick Regal westbound on Highway 101 when he failed to stop for traffic at Del Guzzi Drive and struck a GMC pickup truck, Port Angeles Police Officer Trevor Dropp said.

The GMC truck then struck a Chevy pickup truck, which was towing a boat and trailer.

The wreck resulted in minor injuries, Dropp said.

Gloor was cited for negligent driving and driving without insurance,

Dropp said.

He was taken into custody and booked into the Clallam County jail on an unrelated Department of Corrections warrant.
