According to a story in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, an accident Wednesday afternoon near Lake Ozark, in central Missouri, resulted in the death of a mother and daughter. A semi-trailer truck rear-ended a car, which then caused a chain reaction involving six more cars behind it. The mother and daughter, who were in the car that was rear-ended, were declared dead at the scene. Four other people were taken to the hospital with varying degrees of injuries.
