Violent Traffic Collision Near Cedar Creek Led to Injuries [Columbia, MO]

Columbia, MO (November 19, 2024) On Monday evening, several people were hurt after a frightening traffic collision near Cedar Creek.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP), the rollover crash happened just before 10:22 p.m.

Reports say that the car crash near Cedar Creek, outside of Ashland, shuts down East Route Y at South Clinkenbeard Road.

First responders, including an ambulance, firefighters, and law enforcement, quickly arrived at the scene.

Authorities say that 3 people were in the vehicle. Firefighters extricated two individuals, while a third was already in a police vehicle when they arrived.

The MSHP crash report identified one of the passengers as a juvenile, who suffered minor injuries. An adult female sustained moderate injuries, and an adult male was seriously hurt. The report noted that the vehicle veered off the right side of the road, hit a guardrail, returned to the road, and then overturned onto its left side.

All occupants were transported to University Hospital. The juvenile was the only person wearing a seatbelt.
