Overland Park, KS (August 4, 2025) – A young woman from Mission was taken to the hospital after a rear-end accident along Interstate 35 in Johnson County earlier this week. The crash happened just before noon, around 11:56 a.m. on August 1, along the southbound lanes of I-35 near mile marker 223.2, approximately 0.6 miles north of Interstate 435.
According to reports from the Kansas Highway Patrol, both vehicles involved were traveling in the number three lane when traffic began to slow. A 2014 Nissan Rogue, driven by 21-year-old Emilia Sedillo of Mission, Kansas, was unable to stop in time and struck the rear of a 2021 Ford F-150. The Ford was being driven by 36-year-old Timothy Ringstrom of Overland Park.
Sedillo sustained injuries in the crash and was transported by emergency personnel to Overland Park Regional Medical Center for further care. The Nissan Rogue had to be towed from the scene by Almighty Tow due to the damage it sustained. The Ford F-150 did not require towing, and Ringstrom was reported to have no apparent injuries. Emergency crews responded quickly to clear the scene and assist those involved. The Kansas Highway Patrol is continuing its investigation into the circumstances surrounding the collision.
We hope those injured in this accident recover rapidly.
