House candidate injured in crash on primary election day
EVERETT — A candidate for the state Legislature, April Berg, was injured in a crash Tuesday afternoon on Highway 96, when a suspected drunken driver crashed head-on into a car driven by Berg’s husband, sending a total of four people to hospitals.
Berg, 46, an Everett School Board member and 44th Legislative District candidate awaiting results of a primary election Tuesday, was the passenger in a 2016 Nissan driven by her husband Brian Berg, 56, according to the Washington State Patrol.
The couple was headed east on Highway 96, when a westbound 1992 Nissan “fully” crossed over the center line and hit the Bergs’ car head-on around 4 p.m. near Lowell Larimer Road, according to a state patrol press memo.
Berg, in a Facebook post to her campaign page, said she was recovering from back injuries.

Someone is lit at 4 pm? That's a pretty hardcore drinker.
