Four injured in accident near Butler yesterday

Four persons from Liberal, Mo sustained injuries in a single vehicle accident on I-49 near mile marker 129.0 around 6:30 last night. According to the MSHP report, a 2006 Nissan Altima driven by a 31 year old female left the roadway, crossed the median and struck a guard rail. Three male passengers, ages 9, 36 and 38 sustained injuries ranging from moderate to serious and all, including the driver with minor injuries, were transported to Bates County Memorial Hospital for treatment.

The vehicle was totaled and towed from the scene.

Due to a policy change, the MSHP no longer provides names of victims in publicly available accident reports. Hardcopy detailed reports are available from the MSHP at a cost of $6 with an unknown delivery time due to a severe backlog, according to the MSHP website.
