Bolivar, MO (February 8, 2025) – A two-vehicle accident on Missouri Highway 13 left two children injured on Friday afternoon, February 7. The crash occurred at approximately 3:35 p.m. just two miles north of Bolivar, at the intersection of Route B and Route BB.
Authorities report that a 2014 Ford F-150 attempted to cross MO 13 from Route BB to Route B when it collided with a 2008 Dodge 3500 traveling north. The impact caused significant damage to both vehicles, rendering them inoperable. A and J Towing responded to the scene to remove the wreckage.
The Ford was driven by a 31-year-old woman from Flemington, MO, while the Dodge was operated by a 46-year-old man from Willard, MO. Both drivers were wearing seat belts at the time of the crash and were not reported to have suffered injuries.
However, two young passengers in the Ford, a 6-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy, sustained minor injuries. Emergency medical personnel transported both children to Mercy Hospital in Springfield, MO, for treatment. Missouri State Highway Patrol Trooper D. J. Jackson conducted the investigation. Further details about the crash are still under review by law enforcement authorities.
Our thoughts are with the injured children, and we wish them a quick and full recovery.
