Lorena M. Reyes, 19, of Marshall was cited for failure to drive on the right side of the roadway and for a child restraint violation Monday afternoon, Dec. 31, after she and a minor child were involved in a one-car accident on Route H near County Road 225 in Saline County.

According to a report from Missouri State Highway Patrol, Reyes was the driver of a 1993 Toyota Corolla that ran off the right shoulder and then off the left side of the roadway when the driver over-corrected.

The car struck a ditch, ran through a fence and came to rest in a field, sustaining extensive damage.

Injuries to her passenger, 6-year-old Andrew T. Pesy of Nelson, were minor; he was taken to Fitzgibbon Hospital for treatment. Reyes was not injured. Both were wearing safety devices at the time of the accident.
