A Sedalia man was killed in a two-vehicle accident at 8:09 a.m. Tuesday in Pettis County.

According to a Missouri State Highway Patrol report, Terry D. Dabney, 36, of Marshfield, was driving a Kenworth north on U.S. Highway 65, four-tenths of a mile south of state Route V, when his vehicle struck the rear of a northbound tractor driven by Charles C. Griggs, 73.

Griggs’ vehicle overturned and he was ejected. The tractor came to rest on its side, partially blocking the right lane. Dabney’s vehicle traveled off the right side of the road.

Griggs was taken by the Pettis County Ambulance District to Centerpoint Medical Center in Independence for his injuries. He was pronounced dead at the hospital at 1:04 p.m.

Reports indicate Dabney was using a safety device at the time of the accident, but Griggs was not.

Information is taken from preliminary Missouri State Highway Patrol and Sedalia Police Department reports, which do not necessarily contain statements from all parties involved.
