Frightening Crash on 110th Avenue Northeast Under Investigation [Bellevue, WA]

Bellevue, WA (July 27, 2026) — A 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of vehicular assault following a multi-vehicle crash on 110th Avenue Northeast in downtown Bellevue on the night of July 25.

According to Bellevue police, the collision happened around 9:50 p.m. at the intersection of 110th Avenue Northeast and Northeast Eighth Street.

Investigators said the driver was traveling westbound at a high speed before crashing into several vehicles waiting at the intersection.

Authorities reported that no one involved sustained life-threatening injuries. Emergency responders treated several injured people at the scene, while others were transported to a nearby hospital for further medical evaluation.

Police said officers had been conducting proactive patrols targeting vehicles with modified exhaust systems before the crash. During the operation, officers spotted the suspect driving a vehicle with a loud muffler near 108th Avenue Northeast and Northeast Fourth Street but lost sight of the vehicle before the collision happened.

The suspect was taken into custody and booked into the King County Jail on one count of vehicular assault. Authorities continue to investigate the crash and may release additional information as it becomes available.

Bellevue police noted that speeding and excessive vehicle noise remain enforcement priorities through the department’s Safer Roads Initiative. The agency also reported significant increases in speeding, distracted driving, and overall traffic citations compared with the same period last year.
