Warsaw Man Injured in Benton County Collision with Kenworth

A Warsaw man was injured in a two-vehicle accident that occurred Friday in Benton County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports that a southbound 2007 Kenworth was on US 65, south of Mt. Olivet at 2:22 p.m., when it slowed to make a right turn. A southbound 2004 Ford F-150, driven by 41-year-old Andrew S. Ehlers of Warsaw, began skidding, ran off the right side of the roadway and struck the side of the Kenworth, driven by 45-year-old Wesley L. Segar of Edwards.

Segar was not injured, but Ehlers suffered moderate injuries, and was transported to Golden Valley Hospital by Warsaw-Lincoln Ambulance for treatment.

The Kenworth had minor damage, while the Ford was totaled.
