Preliminary reports show that the driver of a 2014 Ford Focus failed to yield the right-of-way while attempting to make a left turn at the intersection of Highway 8 and Route U. As a result, the vehicle collided with a 2019 Ford F150 pickup truck. Both vehicles were total due to the impact of the crash.
Two people suffered severe injuries in the crash. The victims were identified as a 13-year-old male and a 16-year-old female from Mineral Point, Missouri. Both victims were transported by Washington County ambulance to Mercy Hospital South, where they underwent emergency treatment.
