Jones received serious injuries. She was transported to the St. Luke’s Hospital on the Plaza in Kansas City, Missouri.
The initial accident investigation was conducted by Cass and Bates County State Troopers, Sgt. F. Chambers and Kurt Schmutzler. The investigation is continuing and a summons is pending.
