ST. LOUIS COUNTY, MO : 2 killed in crash on I-270 near I-55 in St. Louis County on Friday, 23rd May 2024

A woman and two girls were killed in a crash on Interstate 270 near Interstate 55 on Friday morning.

According to Cpl. Dallas Thompson with the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the deadly crash occurred in the northbound lanes of I-270 and blocked all lanes near the ramps to I-55.

Thompson said the driver of the truck pulled over because he thought his load was coming loose. As soon as he pulled over to the side of the road, a 1998 FMC Yukon struck his truck from behind after it traveled off the left side of the ramp, an MSHP report said.
