It happened on U.S. Highway 67 at about 6:53 a.m.

JEFFERSON COUNTY, MO – Five people, including three juveniles, were sent to the hospital following a two-vehicle wreck Thursday morning near Festus, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

The accident took place on the southbound lanes past Buck Creek Road and was first reported at about 6:53 a.m.

A preliminary investigation found that a 23-year-old Park Hills man was driving a 2019 Ford Escape northbound when the front-end of the car hit the back of a northbound 2017 Toyota Sebring driven by a 41-year-old De Soto woman.

While the Park Hills resident was not reported hurt and both vehicles were able to be driven from the scene, the driver of the Toyota and her four passengers suffered minor injuries and were taken to Mercy Hospital – Jefferson by private conveyance. The injured passengers, also all of De Soto, were described as an 18-year-old woman, a 13-year-old boy, a 12-year-old girl, and a 10-year-old boy.

Officials did not say whether any charges or citations were anticipated.
