(KNZA)--An Overland Park woman was seriously injured Monday morning in a Buchanan County, Missouri wreck involving a Missouri Department of Transportation dump truck.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says it happened on I-29, about two miles north of Dearborn, shortly before 11:00.
The Patrol reports 77-year-old Lauren Welch was southbound when her SUV struck the towed unit of the MODOT truck, which was stationary in the passing lane due to mowers up head. The towed unit had a flashing arrow to the right indicating the passing lane was closed.
Welch was transported by ambulance to Mosaic Life Care in St. Joseph for the treatment of suspected serious injuries.
The driver of the MDOT truck, 33-year-old St. Joseph resident Daniel Roe, was transported by a MDOT supervisor to an urgent care facility in St. Joseph for the treatment of suspected minor injuries.
