8.28 min. | 4.1 user rating		 May 10, 2011. Orting, WA. Five young children riding in their small battery powered vehicles were hit by a 14 year old driver taking a driving lesson with his father in the 1300 block of Riddell Ave NE. Two of the Five children were transported to the hospital and treated for non life threatening injuries. The father and son were backing out of their driveway when the young driver intending to apply the brakes, pressed down on the accelerator causing the car to speed across the cul-de-sac and hit the children. Still moving at a high rate towards others, the father grabbed the steering wheel. The vehicle missed hitting the others but slammed into the closed garage of a neighbors home damaging items inside and partially breaking through a bedroom wall. The gas line and a water line were also severed. Orting police and fire responded with aid from East Pierce Fire and Rescue. The Washington State Patrol assisted Orting PD with the investigation. No estimate on the total damage loss at this time. The damaged home was deemed unsafe to occupy that night. Utilities were shut off and structural damage did occur.

The water feels great in the summer time and it's not too deep but has a swift current. We had many fun times out here so if your out and about in the Great Pacific Northwest you should go check this place out. This video is for my Mom and Dad who took us kids out camping and out into nature many,many times so many many thanks to them. I shot this with my HV20 Easter morning about 10:00 am before having Easter dinner with my parents. Thank you for enjoying, dwpetersen aka moteev
