The Missouri State Highway Patrol investigated two traffic crashes in the county during the past week, both of which resulted in only minor injuries.
Both wrecks were investigated by Tpr. Ryan Vaughan.
At 2:35 p.m. Friday, July 30, Jody M. Estabrook, 37, of Vanzant, was traveling east on Highway 76, 2½ miles east of Highway 95 when she lost control of the 2000 Jeep Cherokee she was driving. The Jeep started to slide and went off the left side of the roadway and overturned.
Estabrook was taken to Ozarks Medical Center, West Plains, by Texas County Ambulance.
The following day, on July 31, at 7:20 p.m., Tpr. Vaughan investigated the crash of an ATV on County Road 435, five miles south of Ava.
The driver of the 2003 Honda, Christian E. Hutson, 29, of Ava, ran the machine off the road on a curve and struck a rock bluff. The driver, who was ejected from the ATV, was taken to Cox South Hospital, Springfield, with minor injuries.
