MSHP Works Three Crashes Saturday Morning

Troop D of the Missouri State Highway Patrol works three traffic crashes Saturday morning.

The first crash took place around 7:00 am on Highway 76 in Kirbyville when a vehicle driven by a 31-year-old man from Kissee Mills went off the highway and struck a ditch, a wall, and a gate. The driver was taken to Cox South Hospital in Springfield for treatment of minor injuries. 

A driver suffering a possible medical condition led to the second crash around 8:35 on Highway F North of Branson. The driver, a 36-year-old man from Forsyth, was taken to Cox Medical Center Branson in serious condition. 

The final crash took place about an hour later on Highway 65 south of Hollister and involved two drivers from Arkansas. A 21-year-old man from Lead Hill was driving southbound on Highway 65 and failed to stop at a traffic signal and collided with a vehicle in the intersection driven by a 51-year-old man from Harrison. The driver from Lead Hill was not reported as injured with the driver from Harrison sustaining minor injuries that were treated at Cox South Hospital in Springfield.
