A Microsoft executive who died in a traffic collision outside Monroe on Aug. 21 had apparently tried to take his life shortly before the crash, according to a State Patrol report.
Heikki Kanerva, 39, had cut his throat on the day of the crash at his Kirkland home in a suicide attempt, the report said. But whether that injury and the resulting blood loss played a role in the crash, in which a Yakima County woman was also killed, is not known, said the State Patrol.
