Richland Township, MO (December 8, 2021) – One woman has lost her life as a result of a traffic-related incident in Barton County on Tuesday afternoon, December 7.

Reports from the Missouri State Highway Patrol show that a 2004 Pontiac Montana was traveling north on Route T when it became involved in a crash with a 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 just four miles southeast of Lamar.

The driver of the Pontiac sustained fatal injuries and died at the scene. The victim was later identified as 27-year-old Jamie Elizabeth Kirch.

Four other people involved in the crash were injured. A male juvenile of less than one year, a 4-year-old male juvenile, and 29-year-old Levi Brubaker were all airlifted to Cox South Hospital in Springfield for care. EMS transported 45-year-old Jose Cabrales to Mercy Hospital in Joplin for care.

At this time, the incident remains under investigation.

Our thoughts are with Levi Brubaker, Jose Cabrales, and the two children injured in this accident. We hope for their full recovery.

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of Jamie Elizabeth Kirch. Our thoughts are with them at this time.
