Two area residents suffered minor injuries in a two-vehicle traffic crash in Moniteau County on Thursday.
A report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol says the crash occurred as 56-year-old Brenda Kim, of Columbia, reportedly lost control of her northbound vehicle and towed unit, which traveled across the center of the roadway, off the left side of the roadway and was struck by a southbound freightliner, driven by 59-year-old Mark Friedrich, of Wooldridge.
Kim reportedly was transported by ambulance and Friedrich by private vehicle to University Hospital in Columbia for treatment.
The crash happened just before 2:15 p.m. on Missouri Highway 179, just north of Triple S Lane.
