Second Person Charged in Aberdeen Fatal Accident

Aberdeen Police have located the person they believe was the driver of the second vehicle involved in the fatal hit and run accident on January 4th. The arrest was made Monday afternoon.

49 year old Jeffrey Steven Foster of Cosmopolis was taken in to custody and booked in the Grays Harbor County Jail. He faces the same charges as 46 year old Robert Brett Paylor of Hoquiam who was arrested Friday.

Those charges are Vehicular Assault and Hit and Run Injury/Death. The dual hit and run happened around 5pm last Wednesday in the intersection of Simpson Ave. and N. Scammel St. The sun had set and it was raining at the time of the accident that took the life of a 31 year old man.
