A witness reported that an unknown male subject entered his business and advised that a passenger in his car had just jumped out of his vehicle while traveling down the road. After reporting the incident to the witness, the driver and another female passenger left upon the Deputies arrival.
The injured female identified as Tammy Laird, 49 was transported by Crawford County EMS to Ascension Via Christi, and immediately flown to Freeman Hospital in Joplin. Laird is expected to survive her injuries.
