Thursday morning, according to MSHP, a 2011 Chrysler 200 being driven by Carol A. Dirnberger, 68, of Oran, heading east on Highway 32 east of Route A turned into the path of a 2010 Mazda 5 being driven by Samantha J. Lindsey, 33, of Perryville, and the vehicles collided, the Chrysler 200 veering off the north side of the road, entering a parking lot and hitting a 2020 Ford Expedition being driven by 28-year-old Daniel J. Macke of Cape Girardeau.

Dirnberger, who was reportedly wearing a seatbelt, was taken to Barnes Jewish Hospital by Ste. Genevieve County Ambulance with moderate injuries. The Chrysler 200 and Mazda 5 were reportedly totaled and the expedition's damage was listed as moderate.
