29-year-old woman dies in Phelps County crash

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A 29-year-old woman from Pacifica, California, was killed in a crash Friday morning on Interstate 44 in Phelps County, according to a crash report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

The report says the woman failed to stop her 2010 Honda Odyssey at a stop sign on the outer road and went into the westbound lane of I-44.

That led to a 2021 Freightliner Cascadia – driven by a 37-year-old man from El Paso, Texas – to hit the Honda, the report says.

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene by the Phelps County coroner, the report says.

Both drivers wore seatbelts. The El Paso man had no reported injuries. The woman’s body was brought to the mortuary by the coroner, the report says.

MSHP reports do not name those involved in crashes.
