SEATTLE, Washington (KOMO) Police say that at least six people were injured when a man drove his car into a crowd of people in Fremont, Washington just as bars were closing early Saturday morning.

Reports say that the man tried to flee after the crash, but he couldn't get away because uninjured people in the crowd grabbed him and held him.

Police arrived on scene quickly and took the man into custody.

Seattle Police Detective, Renee Witt, says the man, believed to be in his early to mid 20s, was later booked into King County jail for investigation of vehicular assault.

Witt says that alcohol may have been a contributing factor in the collision.

Reports say that the most seriously injured was a 21-year-old man who was rushed to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with potentially life-threatening injuries.

Officials say the driver of the car may have sustained minor injuries during the incident as well.

An investigation into the crash continues.
