Greene County Auto Accident Turns Fatal

A two-vehicle accident that happened recently on U.S. 60 at Greene County F has caused the death of a Sarcoxie woman. According to a report in the News-Leader, 64-year-old Phyllis Long died Monday from the serious injuries she suffered in the crash.

The accident occurred when Rebecca Sawyer, 61, of Brookline who was driving a 2003 Toyota sport utility vehicle was hit by a 1995 Buick driven by Carthage resident Florence Long, 69. Phyllis Long was a passenger in the Buick that had turned into the SUV’s path, Missouri Highway Patrol said. Florence Long and Sawyer, who were both said to be wearing their seat belts, were injured in this Missouri auto collision and taken to Springfield hospitals.

From this news report there is no information on exactly why the Buick made that turn causing this horrific accident and the fatality. There are, of course, many reasons for such collisions. The driver was possibly distracted and inattentive to the road ahead. There could have also been a dangerous condition on the highway.
