Fifth student dies from Aurora Bridge accident

North Seattle College reports that another student, a 20 year old female international student, has died after succumbing to injuries sustained in the multi-vehicle accident on the Aurora Bridge that occurred on Thursday, Sept. 24. This student now makes five students in all who have lost their lives as a result of the devastating accident.

Out of respect for the family and their wishes to maintain privacy during this difficult time, the college said they will not be releasing the student's identity.

"On behalf of our college, we offer our deepest and most sincere condolences to the family for this tragic loss. The aftermath of this accident has tested the faith and resolve of the North community like no other in recent memory, and we have tremendous grief and sorrow. 

"But this terrible accident has also shown me and so many others that our community is incredibly strong and resilient, and by pulling together in this way, we will become stronger. We appreciate the support that has been extended to our campus from this city and throughout the world," said Warren J. Brown, Ed.D., president of North Seattle College."
