A 21-year-old Bellingham woman was killed when the 2003 Subaru station wagon she was driving Wednesday morning along the Mount Baker Highway left the roadway just west of Glacier, rolled and struck a tree. A 21-year-old female passenger in the car, who also was from Bellingham, was transported from the scene with injuries. According to a Washington State Patrol release on the incident, Madeline R. Hurd was killed in the crash, while Gina L. Heuscher was injured and transported to St. Joseph hospital in Bellingham. An email to The Bellingham Herald from Rene Heuscher said her daughter had been released from the hospital without serious injury. “Anytime you go on a call for a fatality accident with young people, like this, it’s the pits,” Whatcom County Fire District 14 Chief Jerry DeBruin told The Bellingham Herald.
