KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A woman was killed and three juveniles were injured in a two-vehicle crash Thursday night in Cass County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says emergency crews were called just after 8 p.m. to Missouri 2 and 271st Street near Freeman, Missouri.

MSHP says a 2002 GMC, driven by a 16-year-old juvenile, crossed the center line into the path of a 2012 Ford.

The head-on crash pushed the Ford off the roadway and into a ditch.

Cynthia L. Wasser, 66, of Ottawa, Kansas, was driving the Ford and died at an area hospital a short time later.

Three juveniles — the 16-year-old driver, another 16-year-old and a 17-year-old, all males from Freeman — suffered serious injuries.
