Mary Welch Seriously Injured in Car Wreck

A one-car accident last Wednesday morning around 10:19 a.m. seriously injured Mary Welch, a Parnell resident, on Route E about six miles west of Parnell. The Missouri Highway Patrol reports that a 2004 Chevrolet driven by Welch was northbound when she lost control, went off the west side of the road, struck a ditch, went airborne, and came to rest on its wheels after overturning. Welch was taken by the Nodaway County Ambulance to St. Francis Hospital of Maryville and then later lifeflighted to Heartland Hospital of St. Joseph. The car was totaled.
