Two-Year-Old Girl Dies Of Accident Injuries

A 2-year-old girl died yesterday afternoon in a Seattle hospital, more than a day after a two-vehicle accident in the Maltby area that killed her mother.

Jessica Carlson of Snohomish died at 1:45 p.m. yesterday in Harborview Medical Center, according to the State Patrol.

Her mother, 21-year-old Rebecca Carlson, was driving west on Highway 522 about a mile east of Paradise Lake Road about 6:30 p.m. when an eastbound vehicle driven by Travis Zarelli, 21, of Snohomish crossed the center line and hit their car, the police report said.

All three were airlifted to Harborview; Rebecca Carlson died that night.

Zarelli is in satisfactory condition, hospital officials said.
