Everett Police traffic detectives still have a lot of work left as they investigate a one car-one occupant fatal accident on the 41st street overpass over I-5 Sunday morning. Early indications are a Camaro came off the Southbound I-5 off ramp at 41st, struck a pole and median, then continued south across the traffic lanes, slamming into a crosswalk pole. The driver of the vehicle died at the scene. Everett Police Spokesman Aaron Snell says the driver was a male and they believe speed was a factor. The crash happened at 9:40am. No further details are available at this point as the investigation is just getting underway. Will update when we have more info. Here are some MyEverettNews.com photos from the scene.
