Pedestrian dies after being hit by car in multi-vehicle Rogersville crash

GREENE COUNTY, Mo. — The Rogersville Police Department (RPD) is reporting that a pedestrian has died from injuries suffered in a crash involving two vehicles at the intersection of State Highway 125 and Farm Road 186 Friday morning.

According to RPD, the pedestrian was putting out a sign and was waving on an eastbound Toyota Camry stopped at the intersection on Farm Road 186 to cross. Then, a northbound Lexus SUV on Highway 125 was traveling down the hill near the intersection and did not stop in time before crashing into the Camry, causing the Camry to hit a fence.

The collision caused the Lexus SUV to propel off the road, striking the pedestrian northeast of the intersection.

RPD says EMS and fire crews performed CPR on the pedestrian at the scene and got him stable enough to send him to the hospital. However, he later died from his injuries shortly afterward at the hospital. His next of kin have been notified of the accident.

The driver of the Camry was taken to Cox South Hospital in Springfield with a leg injury and she is in stable condition. The driver of the SUV suffered minor injuries.
