Woman Killed in Missouri Multi-Vehicle Collision
St. Louis County, MO (March 24, 2025) – A 32-year-old St. Louis woman died at the scene of a multi-vehicle crash on Highway 367 on Friday.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the fatal crash happened near Sunbeam Court in north St. Louis County.
Reports say that three people lost their lives in several vehicle crashes across MSHP Troop C’s coverage area on Friday.
Among the victims, a 32-year-old St. Louis woman died at the scene of a three-vehicle crash on Highway 367
Additionally, a 10-year-old boy in the Kia Soul she was driving suffered serious injuries and was transported to Children’s Hospital. Neither the woman nor the child was wearing a seatbelt.
The crash occurred when a northbound 2020 Dodge Journey veered across the centerline and collided with the Kia, causing it to overturn. A southbound Chevrolet Malibu then struck the Kia, sending both vehicles off the highway. The Kia ultimately crashed into a bridge wall.
The 59-year-old St. Louis man driving the Dodge sustained serious injuries and was taken to a hospital, while the Chevrolet’s driver was uninjured.
Sweet Lawyers extend our heartfelt condolences to the family of the victim in the multi-vehicle crash on Highway 367. We also hope for a full recovery for the injured child and others affected by this tragic crash.
How Can a Wrongful Death Claim Help?
The loss of a loved one in a fatal traffic accident is a devastating experience for families. In addition to the emotional trauma, the bereaved are often left facing unforeseen financial burdens. When this happens, filing a wrongful death claim can provide vital support, both legally and financially. It is important to understand that a wrongful death claim holds the responsible party accountable and allows the family of the deceased to seek compensation for their loss.
One of the primary reasons to pursue a wrongful death claim following a deadly traffic accident is to recover financial losses, which may include funeral expenses, medical costs for the deceased’s final treatment, and lost wages. If the deceased was the primary earner in the family, the surviving loved ones may struggle to cover day-to-day expenses without the deceased’s income. Compensation from a wrongful death lawsuit can help ease the financial strain caused by this loss.
Additionally, a wrongful death claim serves as a way to hold negligent parties responsible. Whether the crash was caused by a drunk driver, distracted driving, or a defective vehicle, the at-fault party should be held accountable for their actions. The legal process ensures that justice is pursued and can also raise awareness about dangerous behaviors that may have contributed to the collision and prevent similar accidents from happening.
Pursuing a wrongful death claim can offer a sense of closure and justice to grieving families. Yes, no financial compensation can replace the lost life of a loved one, but it can provide families with a sense of resolution, knowing that the responsible party has been held liable for their actions.
