St. Louis car accident sends woman to hospital
Quiana Bogan, 36, was seriously injured Wednesday in a Missouri car accident on Interstate 70 in North St. Louis.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Todd Kasban, 33, was traveling eastbound in a 2000 Ford Windstar just ahead of Bogan’s 2004 Nissan Altima. Kasban had to swerve to avoid another vehicle and in doing so, he lost control of his car and struck the median wall. After hitting the median, Kasban’s car crossed back into the path of Bogan’s car.
Bogan was taken to Barnes Jewish Hospital for treatment of serious injuries. Kasban did not sustain any serious injuries, according to the initial crash report.
Bogan was not wearing a seat belt.
The investigating officer did not have any details on the vehicle that Kasban had to swerve to avoid. It is not known whether this third vehicle made a negligent maneuver that may have started this chain reaction accident, or if Kasban was simply driving too fast and had to avoid the other car.
Details such as this would be investigated by a St. Louis area personal injury attorney should one be contacted on this case. A crash reconstruction would be able to look at the speeds and locations of all the vehicles involved and determine which drivers should be held liable for damages.
