COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A man has been charged with three felonies, four misdemeanors and an infraction in a fatal crash that occurred Tuesday in Marshall.

Brent Reynolds, 42, of Marshall, was charged Wednesday in Saline County with first-degree involuntary manslaughter, two counts of armed criminal action, a count of second-degree assault, reckless driving, speeding, not stopping at a crosswalk, not having insurance and an infraction of not having plates.

Reynolds is being held at the Saline County Jail without bond. A court date has not been scheduled.

The probable cause statement says a 2014 Ford Focus that was driven by Reynolds crashed into a Ford Bronco on South Odell Avenue. A 65-year-old Marshall woman was pronounced dead at the scene.

The speed limit was 25 miles per hour and Reynolds allegedly crashed the Ford Focus into the Ford Bronco at 110.6 miles per hour, troopers found from the Ford Focus’ electronic data recorder.

The crash caused the Ford Bronco to hit a retaining wall and a pedestrian, a 32-year-old Marshall man who was flown from the scene to a hospital, according to the statement.
