Three Marshall Residents Injured in Saline County Crash

Three Marshall residents were injured in a two-vehicle accident that occurred Friday night in Saline County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports that a northbound 1996 Honda Accord, driven by a 16-year-old juvenile, failed to stop at a stop sign on Missouri 240 (east of Marshall) and struck a westbound 2014 Jeep Patriot, driven by 62-year-old Karen A. Stevens of Marshall.

The Honda then crossed 240 and onto Marigold Avenue, off the road and into a ditch. The Jeep came to a controlled stop.

Stevens, as well as two female teenagers in the Honda, suffered minor injuries. All three were transported to Fitzgibbon Hospital by private vehicle, according to the report.

The Patriot had extensive damage, while the Honda was totaled.

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.
