St Louis, MO (February 20, 2022) – A two-vehicle accident reported in St Louis on Thursday morning sent one man to a local hospital with injuries. At around 4 a.m., on February 17, calls for assistance came in surrounding a crash on Interstate 270.
Reports provided by Missouri State Highway Patrol show that a collision between a 2019 Chevrolet Malibu and a 2013 Chevrolet Malibu occurred on the southbound side of Interstate 270 in the area just north of Missouri State Highway 100.
The incident resulted in injuries. EMS rendered aid to 45-year-old Michael Brooks on-site. Brooks was then rushed to Mercy Hospital in St Louis where he underwent emergency medical treatment.
