Missouri Personal Injury Lawyer - Jefferson County Teens Injured in One Car Accident
On April 14, 2008, four Missouri teens sustained personal injury in a one car accident in Jefferson County around 8:26 p.m. on Route E. According to the investigating officer, Nicholas Parrott, 18, of Park Hills, Missouri was driving his 1995 Dodge Neon Northbound on Route E when he crossed the center line and started to drive on the wrong side of the road. Parrott swerved to the right and travelled off the right side of the road. Parrott's vehicle then crossed into a gravel driveway, then returned to the roadway. The undercarriage of the Neon struck the edge of the road, causing the vehicle to overturn and hit a tree before coming to rest on its top.
Parrott had three passengers in his vehicle, Alicia Aubuchon, 18, and Steven Jones 20, both of Park Hills, Missouri and Amber Simmons, 17, of Desloge, Missouri. Aubuchon was transported by Arch helicopter to Barnes Hospital where she was listed as having sustained serious personal injury in this Missouri car wreck. Simmons was taken to Cardinal Glennon Hospital and was listed with serious personal injuries. Jones was taken to Jefferson Memorial by Valle Ambulance and was listed as having moderate injury. Mr. Parrott was taken to St. John's Hospital by Arch Helicopter and escaped from the wreck with only minor injuries.
At this time, it is unknown what caused Mr. Parrott to cross into the opposite lane of travel. If and when more information becomes available, we will update this blog.
