A Vancouver man died Sunday afternoon in a one-car accident west of Skamokawa on SR 4.
According to a report from the Washington State Patrol, Sergey Saranchuk 53, was eastbound at a high rate of speed when he ran off the highway at Milepost 25.5. His 2012 Toyota Prius left the road off the eastbound shoulder, struck a telephone pole and several trees and came to rest down a 40-foot embankment.
Saranchuk died at the scene. He was not wearing a seatbelt.
The cause of the accident is under investigation.

This is absolutely heart breaking. Even though I did not know Sergey personally, he was my neighbor... He was always kind to my family, hard working, and seemed to be a great family man. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family
