KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Kansas City, Missouri, man was seriously injured and six others suffered minor to moderate injuries in a two-vehicle collision Tuesday in DeKalb County, Missouri.

The driver of a 2009 Chevrolet Impala was traveling north on Ensign Trace, crossing U.S. 36 Highway at 4:50 p.m. in Cameron.

As the vehicle was crossing the highway, it was struck on the driver's door by a 2012 Chevrolet Impala traveling east on U.S. 36. Both vehicles came to a stop in the eastbound lanes of U.S. 36, per the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

A 30-year-old Kansas City man, who was driving the 2012 Impala, was taken to an area hospital with serious injuries. Three male passengers in the vehicle — ages 30, 45 and 50 — suffered moderate injuries and were also transported.

The 19-year-old female driver of the 2009 Impala, who is a resident of Cameron, was moderately injured in the crash. Her two passengers suffered minor injuries, too. All three occupants were taken to a local hospital, according to the highway patrol.
