Warrensburg, MO (May 10, 2025) – A two-vehicle collision sent one man to the hospital after a rear-end crash occurred along northbound Business Route 13, just north of Southeast 230th Road, on the afternoon of May 8.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the crash happened around 3:14 p.m. when a 1995 Chevrolet S10, heading northbound, struck the rear of a 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix. Both vehicles were being driven by Warrensburg residents and were able to be driven from the scene afterward.
The driver of the Chevrolet S10 was identified as a 50-year-old male who reported no injuries. The Grand Prix, driven by a 32-year-old male, sustained moderate damage in the crash. A 46-year-old male passenger in the Grand Prix, who was reportedly not wearing a seatbelt, suffered minor injuries. He was transported by Johnson County Ambulance District to Western Missouri Medical Center for further treatment.
The Johnson County Sheriff’s Department assisted at the scene, helping clear the roadway and ensure traffic flow was restored. The Missouri State Highway Patrol is continuing to investigate the incident to determine all contributing factors.
We hope the man injured in this crash makes a full and smooth recovery.
