Wrong-way ****** on I-64 ****** one, injures two others

CHESTERFIELD, MO. – A deadly wrong-way ****** on Interstate 64 claimed the life of a 79-year-old man from Beaufort, Missouri.

The ****** happened just before 8:45 p.m. Saturday shutting the eastbound lanes of the interstate down for hours.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, a total of four vehicles were involved. Troopers say a Chevrolet van, driven by the 79-year-old man, was going west in the eastbound lanes when it collided head on with a 2023 Silverado. The impact pushed the Silverado into the path of a commercial truck in the next lane, striking it from behind.

The wrong-way driver continued moving westbound and then struck a third car, a 2014 Toyota Avalon, head on.

Emergency crews responded to the scene. The Monarch ***** Protection District pronounced the man *****.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol, Town and County Police, and Chesterfield Police also responded to the ******.

Two other people were taken to the hospital with minor and moderate injuries.

The ****** shut down the eastbound lanes of I-64 in that area for several hours.
