Man charged in four-car crash
A Port Orchard man was charged with drunk driving Sept. 18 after he was involved in a four-vehicle collision.
Charging papers stated Matthew Ray Walker, 34, was charged with one count of driving under the influence in Kitsap County District Court.
According to the police report, deputies responded to a reported four-car crash about 5:20 p.m. in the 9200 block of Bethel Burley near Mullenix Road. When they arrived at the scene, they found debris and fluid, a 40-foot skid mark, but no vehicles. A male told deputies the driver of a small red car, who was responsible for the collision, left the scene.
Deputies spotted a 1980 Ford Tempo traveling southbound on Bethel Burley Road, then started a pursuit of the vehicle. Deputies stopped the car, which suffered heavy front-end damage, near SE Way Road, court records stated.
