HOLT COUNTY—A woman and 5-year-old were injured in an accident just before 2:30p.m. Monday in Holt County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported a 2021 Nissan Murano driven by Deborah K. Winters, 59, Omaha, Nebraska, was northbound on Interstate 29 near the U.S. 59 exit.

The vehicle traveled off the east side of the road, struck a guardrail end, continued northbound through the median, became airborne, struck an embankment and came to rest on its top facing southeast partially blocking U.S. 59.

Atchison-Holt EMS transported Winters and a 5-year-old boy to Mosaic Life Care in St. Joseph. A 4-year-old girl in the vehicle was not injured. All three were properly restrained, according to the MSHP.
