The Ford entered the intersection and was struck broadside by a northbound 2008 dump truck driven by John Charles Davis, Jr. 43, Oregon, Missouri.

Both vehicles entered the southbound lane. A southbound 1997 Ford pickup driven by Timothy K. Sherican, 55, St. Joseph, collided with the other two vehicles.

Chilcoat was pronounced dead at the scene and transported to Frontier Forensics.

Davis and Sherican were transported to the hospital in St. Joseph.
