Two seriously injured in head-on collision
Two Missourians were seriously injured Saturday night in a head-on collision on Highway 291 in Cass County.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Adam Maze, 19, of Strasburg, Mo. was traveling south in a 2007 Toyota when he crossed into oncoming traffic. Maze’s vehicle crashed head-on into a 2008 Honda, driven by Denise Greene, 44, of Greenwood Mo.
Both Maze and Greene were seriously injured. Maze was taken by helicopter to Research Medical Center in Kansas City. Greene was transported to Centerpoint Medical Center.
Maze was not wearing a seatbelt.
It is not known why Maze’s vehicle crossed into oncoming traffic. The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the crash is still under investigation and no summons were issued to either driver for careless driving. Once the investigation is complete, the details will be used by local authorities, insurance companies, and possibly a personal injury attorney to determine liability.
