Fundraiser For Bellevue Infant Injured In Crash That Killed Mom

Six-month-old Arista Holland was seriously injured in the Saturday crash. Her mother, Anjelika Holland, died.

BELLEVUE, WA - The Bellevue infant seriously injured in a multi-car crash Saturday remains in critical condition at Harborview, and friends of her family have started a fundraiser to help pay for expenses.

Six-month-old Arista Holland was riding with her mother, Anjelika L. Holland, 21, on Saturday night in the northbound lanes of I-5 near SeaTac. A car in front of Holland slowed for stopped traffic, but she could not stop in time.

Holland swerved, hitting the car in front of her and then a guardrail. She was ejected from her 2003 Saturn L200, according to Washington State Patrol.
