This morning around 4:45 a.m. Deputies responded to an area near 307th St. going
Northbound on I-49 in Archie regarding a two vehicle accident.
They made contact with a driver who said he was rear-ended by someone. The driver
who Deputies made contact with said he drove approximately a quarter mile further to
get to a safer location following the incident — so he never saw the person who was
driving.
The vehicle the other person was driving has since been identified as a tan 2002 Chevy
Blazer.
When Deputies located the Chevy Blazer, it was unoccupied and parked on the
shoulder of the highway near the crash site. Deputies then surveyed the area, looking
for the driver of the vehicle. They were unable to locate the person. An Everbridge call
was sent to the surrounding area to notify residents.
The Chevy Blazer has since been towed. Our Office is seeking the driver of this vehicle
to know their well-being since they were involved in the incident. This vehicle is
registered to a man from Blue Springs.
Anyone who saw the incident or anyone who may have information about this vehicle is
asked to call the Cass County Sheriff’s Office at (816) 380-5200.
