Clinton County, MO (January 13, 2025) – A two-vehicle collision involving a Nissan Maxima and a Nissan Rogue occurred at the intersection of Perren Rd and Old Barn Ln, two miles northeast of Holt, on Sunday afternoon. The crash, reported at approximately 4:35 p.m., left one juvenile occupant with injuries.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the collision happened as the Nissan Maxima, driven westbound by a 16-year-old male from Holt, approached the intersection and began to slide. The Maxima entered the intersection and struck the right passenger side of the northbound Nissan Rogue, driven by a 55-year-old male from Lathrop.
Following the impact, the Rogue rotated clockwise, crossed the center of the roadway, and traveled off the east side, where it came to rest on its wheels. The Maxima came to a controlled stop on SE 209th St. The Rogue sustained moderate damage and was towed from the scene by Scotty’s, while the Maxima was driven away.
A 14-year-old female occupant of the Rogue from Lathrop sustained injuries and was transported by a private vehicle to Cameron Regional Medical Center for treatment. Both drivers and the injured juvenile were reported to have been wearing safety devices at the time of the collision.
The crash remains under investigation by authorities. Our thoughts are with those impacted by this incident, and we wish the injured juvenile a quick recovery.
