Vancouver Police are looking for witnesses and dash-cam video, after a driver lost control of a car Friday night and struck a pole, leaving three passengers with significant injuries.

The collision occurred at 9:25 p.m. Friday, as a brown 2002 Buick Century traveled along East Cordova Street, near Powell Street. The driver lost control of the car, causing it to leave the road and strike a pole.

Three passengers, all in their 30s, suffered a number of serious, but non-life-threatening injuries, including broken bones and broken teeth.

The driver, a 35-year-old Vancouver man, was arrested at the scene. Investigators believe speed and alcohol were factors in the collision.
