Rich Hill, MO (October 25, 2024) – A motor vehicle accident reported in the Rich Hill area left two people seriously injured. Bates County officials were informed of the accident at around 12:15 p.m. on October 23.
Police reports indicate that a 2007 Chrysler Town and Country and a 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe collided on the northbound side of Interstate 49. The involved vehicles came to rest in the center of the road just north of mile marker 119.4. Both vehicles were severely damaged in the accident and had to be towed from the scene. Two people involved in the crash sustained serious injuries. 25-year-old Jason Jackson of Nevada, Missouri, was airlifted and flown by LifeFlight Eagle Air Ambulance to Research Medical Center for emergency care. Vernon County EMS transported the second victim, 26-year-old Jody Dines, to Belton Regional Medical Center. At this time, the incident is under investigation.
We hope Jason Jackson and Jody Dines recover quickly from their injuries.
Each year, thousands of people in Missouri experience the life-changing impact of car accidents, often altering the course of their lives forever.

The physical and emotional toll of these injuries can leave lasting effects on victims, affecting their ability to work, engage in daily activities, and enjoy life as they once did.
Sadly, negligence frequently plays a significant role in these accidents, with common causes including speeding, driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, distracted driving, and failure to yield the right of way.
