Butler Woman Hurt In Jackson County Crash

A Butler woman was hurt Monday in a motor-vehicle mishap in Jackson County, Missouri. 22-year-old Jessica N. Parsons, Butler, Mo., was flown to Research Medical Center, Kansas City, Mo., with the moderate injuries she suffered in the one-car crash on U.S. 50 just East of Jackson County route F. Missouri Highway Patrol trooper R. A. Wood says the wreck happened about 9:45 a.m. when Parsons apparently fell asleep at the wheel and the East-bound Pontiac she was driving traveled off the left side of the road, returned to 50, started to skid, veered off the left side of the road a second time, hit a concrete culvert and became airborne, hitting a ditch and oveturning -- coming to rest in a creek bed. Lone Jack firemen and Jackson County sheriff's officers assisted Missouri Highway Patrol troopers at the scene -- on U.S. 50, four-tenths-of-a-mile East of Jackson County route F.

Your Taxes Are Still Due

Shutdown or not, your taxes are still due:

If you requested a six-month extension in April, your Tuesday deadline still stands.

 

The government shutdown is keeping most IRS workers at home, but that doesn't mean you're off the hook for your taxes.
The agency says the Tuesday deadline for filing your taxes if you requested a six-month extension in April still stands.
But the IRS says it won't issue any refunds until "normal government operations resume."

The agency also won't have any workers to take calls or help taxpayers in person. More than 90 percent of IRS staff is on a government-wide furlough due to the federal shutdown.

Harrisonville Siblings and Mother Still Missing

HARRISONVILLE, Mo. - Three siblings out of Harrisonville, Mo., have yet to be located.

The Cass County Sheriff’s Department has issued a Missing Persons Alert after three young siblings went missing.

The siblings are Tabitha Davis, 11, Jasper Davis, 14, and Jordan Davis, 15. They are believed to be with their biological, non-custodial mother Sherri Lynn Davis.

The sibling’s father, Jamie Davis, said he last saw them Friday afternoon when he was home for lunch; the school had an early out. When he returned around 4 p.m., the children were gone.

Cass Co. Sheriff Jeff Weber held a news conference on Monday, and said Sherri’s black Mercedes SUV was seen at the Davis home Friday afternoon. The family had not heard from her since she lost custody of the children back in 2009.

She is believed to be traveling in that SUV or a white recreational vehicle with Arizona license plates. She is linked to many addresses from Alaska to Florida. She may also have her five German Shepard dogs with her.
Weber said an Amber Alert was not issued because the situation did not meet the necessary criteria. Parental dispute does not apply unless the children are endangered. Jamie Davis does not believe Sherri would hurt the children.

Weber also said there are no signs the children have used their social media accounts or their cell phones since they've gone missing.
Tabitha is 4-foot, 9-inches tall and weighs 85 pounds. She has blond hair and blue eyes, and was last seen wearing a blue T-shirt, blue jeans and Hello Kitty slippers.

Jasper is 5-foot, 6-inches tall and weighs 125 pounds. He has brown hair and blue eyes, and was last seen wearing a dark colored shirt with a white emblem on the front, with white shorts and red socks.
Jordan is 5-foot, 6-inches and weighs 175 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a blue T-shirt with dark blue shorts and flip flops.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Cass County Sheriff’s office at 380-5200.
