A Hillsboro woman was seriously hurt in a two-vehicle accident Friday evening (Dec. 21) on the Hwy. A North Outer Road west of Hillsboro.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported that Lawrence Bourne, 47, of Festus, was driving a 2007 Chevrolet F1500 west on the Hwy. A North Outer Road east of Lockeport Point at 6:18 p.m. when he crossed the center line and struck the left front of an eastbound 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser driven by Marsha Hardin, 61, of Hillsboro.
The report made no mention of an injury to Bourne, but Hardin suffered serious injuries and was taken by Joachim-Plattin Ambulance to Mercy Hospital South (formerly St. Anthony’s Medical Center) in south St. Louis County.
An update on her condition was not available.
Hardin was not wearing a seat belt but Bourne was, the report said. The PT Cruiser was totaled in the crash while the Chevrolet was damaged extensively.
