(KNZA)--A Thursday morning two-vehicle crash in northwest Missouri claimed the life of an elderly St. Joseph man.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says it happened on Interstate-29, about 7 miles north of St. Joseph, shortly before 9:30.
According to the Patrol report, a pickup truck driven by an 83-year-old St. Joseph man was attempting to merge onto northbound I-29 from southbound U.S. 71 when the pickup made an abrupt left turn into the path of a northbound car driven by a 64-year-old Merriam, Kansas woman.
The car struck the drivers side of the pickup.
Both vehicles traveled off the roadway into the median, where the pickup overturned.
Both drivers were transported to Mosaic Life Care in St. Joseph, where the St. Joseph man was pronounced dead.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol no longer releases the names of crash victims.
