Chain O Lakes, MO (May 19, 2025) – A mid-morning crash near the Missouri-Arkansas state line left one driver injured on Friday, May 16. The accident took place just before 11:15 a.m. at the intersection of Route P and County Road 2300, approximately four miles south of Chain O Lakes.
According to reports from the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the crash involved a 2021 Nissan Rogue traveling east and a 1992 Toyota pickup headed north. Both vehicles sustained extensive damage and were removed from the scene by local tow services. Authorities believe the collision occurred at or near the intersection, though the full sequence of events remains under investigation.
The driver of the Nissan Rogue, a 32-year-old woman from Berryville, Arkansas, suffered minor injuries. She was transported by Mercy EMS to Mercy Berryville for treatment. The other driver, a 60-year-old man from Eureka Springs, Arkansas, was reportedly not transported. Both individuals were using seat belts at the time of the incident.
Emergency crews from Barry County and surrounding areas responded swiftly to assess the scene and clear the roadway. No citations have been issued at this time, and authorities continue to examine the contributing factors in the crash.
We hope the injured driver makes a smooth and full recovery.
