PULASKI COUNTY, Mo. (Feb. 27, 2009) — A two-car crash south of Richland injured two people Thursday afternoon, according to Missouri State Highway Patrol reports.
Troopers reported that at 3:52 p.m., Patrick J. McDonald, 39, of Linn Creek, was northbound on Highway 7 near Exit 150 of Interstate 44 about seven miles south of Richland when his 1993 Pontiac Grand Am ran into the rear of a northbound 1997 Plymouth Neon driven by Jonathan T. Pettijohn, 25, of Kansas City, who was waiting to make a turn.
McDonald was not hurt but Pettijohn and his passenger, Telia L. McBowlin, 24, of Richland, were both transported by Pulaski County Ambulance District personnel to St. John’s Hospital in Lebanon.
