With heavy hearts and deep sorrow, the North County St. Louis community is mourning the devastating loss of CrashOut Kj and another young woman following a fatal crash late Friday night in Moline Acres. What began as an ordinary evening ended in unimaginable heartbreak, leaving families shattered, loved ones praying for strength, and an entire community united in grief over lives taken far too soon.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the crash occurred at approximately 11:00 p.m. on Friday, January 2, on Route 367 at Chambers. The collision involved two vehicles and unfolded with sudden and tragic force. Investigators report that a Chrysler 300 lost control and crossed into southbound traffic, where it was struck by a Mazda 3, setting off a devastating chain of events.
A 26-year-old woman, a passenger in the Chrysler 300, was pronounced deceased at the scene. The loss was immediate and overwhelming. A second victim, a 22-year-old woman, who was driving the Mazda 3, suffered critical injuries and was rushed to a local hospital. Despite the tireless efforts of medical staff, she succumbed to her injuries Saturday morning, deepening the sorrow felt by all involved.
Four other occupants—three women and one man from both vehicles—remain hospitalized with serious injuries, continuing to fight for recovery as their families keep close watch, holding onto hope and faith during this painful time.
One of the victims has been identified by family as CrashOut Kj, a life remembered for more than the tragedy that claimed it. Loved ones now cling to memories, shared moments, and the impact CrashOut Kj had on those around him. Though words cannot ease the pain, his name and spirit will live on through those who loved him.
This tragic crash is a sobering reminder of how fragile life can be and how quickly everything can change. In a single moment, futures were altered and families were left to grieve losses that should never have happened. As the investigation continues, the community’s focus remains on honoring the lives lost and supporting those still battling to heal.
To the families and loved ones affected, we extend our deepest condolences. May you find comfort in one another, strength in community support, and peace in knowing your loved ones will never be forgotten. To the injured, we pray for healing, resilience, and recovery.
Please keep all families involved in your thoughts and prayers.
Gone too soon, forever remembered.
