A 4-year-old girl from Sedalia suffered minor injuries at 2:50 p.m. Monday in a Johnson County accident.
According to a Missouri State Highway Patrol report, Alexis J. Kindle-Schmutz, 25, of Sedalia, was driving a 2013 GMC Acadia west on U.S. Highway 50 near state Highway 13 bypass when she lost control on the rain or snow-covered roadway. Her vehicle slid off the right side of the road and struck a tree.
She was not wearing a seat belt, but the child was. The child was transported to Western Missouri Medical Center in Warrensburg by Johnson County Ambulance District.
