Springfield, Missouri car accident injures five
Five people, including two children, were injured in a Missouri car accident Saturday morning on Route M in Springfield, Missouri.
The accident occurred as Teresa Ireland, 39, was traveling north in her 2003 Dodge Neon and hit a 1998 Ford Taurus, driven by Amanda Williams, 25. According to the initial crash report filed by the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Ireland failed to yield to Williams’ car as she was making a left turn.
Ireland suffered minor injures and was taken to Cox South Hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, the injuries sustained by Williams and her family were more serious. Amanda and John Williams, 27, suffered moderate to minor injuries while the two five-year-old children in the car, Laura and Xander Williams, suffered more serious injuries. The Williams family was taken to St. John’s Hospital for treatment.
All involved were wearing seatbelts.
Thankfully no one was killed in this Missouri crash. The initial crash report was not very detailed and more specific information about the crash will need to be investigated by a Missouri personal injury lawyer.
