Deadly Traffic Crash Occurs in St. Louis County

|

During the morning rush hour, an auto accident resulted in the death of one person and two others suffering serious injuries in St. Louis County. According to authorities, a collision between a semi-truck and a car occurred on Thursday at around 7:15 a.m. The accident happened as the vehicles traveled on I-270 southbound near Manchester Road. Authorities confirmed one person was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash and a man and child were taken to the hospital by ambulance. The victims identities have not been released and the extent of their injuries are unknown. Crews closed the three right lanes of I-270 while the investigation occurred.

The events immediately following an auto accident can be traumatic and stressful. While most people are aware that they should contact the authorities following a serious accident, some individuals do not know that they should also contact an auto accident attorney soon after the crash. Of course, seeking the necessary medical treatment should be a victims first priority, and after they are stabilized, it is important to seek a legal consultation to determine their rights for justice. An attorney will investigate your accident to determine the proper avenue to obtain justice as well as deserved compensation.
