LONGVIEW — Longview police are investigating an accident in which two people were hurt when an SUV crashed into a building. Police were dispatched Wednesday at 9:31 p.m. to the 700 Block of South Green Street. Arriving officers learned a Chevrolet Tahoe, driven by 30-year-old Latoya Shenae Addison of Longview, was involved in an accident. Addison said she was traveling westbound on Young Street approaching the red light. Just after making a right turn onto Green Street from Young Street, Addison lost control of her vehicle.
