KC-MO Northland Wreck Kills One



At 12:48 am Sunday morning- KC-MO fire- police and MAST-EMS ambulance crews were called to the intersection of Northeast 52nd Street and Baxter on a single-vehicle crash.


When the first fire department unit arrived- Pumper 34- they reported "a (pickup) truck overturned" and a person "trapped underneath" the truck.

That person died at the scene- but MAST transported an "18--year-old male" with non life-threatening injuries to a Nort land medical trauma center.

Police reported a 3rd occupant fled the scene after the crash.

There are yet no details regarding the wreck- but indications are that excessive speed and possible mind-altering substances were involved.
