Four injured in two-car collision

By Ryan Bradley, Esq.

Four people were injured, two seriously, when two cars collided Sunday on Highway 51 in Perry County, Missouri.

The accident occurred when a northbound 1987 Ford Crown Victoria, driven by Joann Jennin, 60, traveled off the right side of the road. Jennin overcorrected while trying the keep the car from going off the roadway and veered into the southbound lane. Jennin?s vehicle then struck a 1993 GMC Sierra, driven by Janice Nagel, 66.

Jennin and Nagel both suffered serious injuries. Jennin was flown to St. Francis Hospital in Cape Girardeau, while Nagel was flown to Barnes Hospital in St. Louis. Two passengers in Jennin?s vehicle, Hubert Taylor, 92, and Susan Nagel, 42, suffered less serious injuries and were taken to Perry County Memorial Hospital for treatment.

All passengers were wearing a seat belt.

No citation for either driver was indicated by the investigating officer.
