Catherine Welch, 24, was killed and four others were injured Friday in a two car accident on County Road 363 just south of Nemo, Missouri.

Welch was driving north in a 2004 Chevrolet with Brian Hawthorne, 25, when another car crossed the center line in front of Welch. The other car, a 1999 Chevrolet driven by Brent English, 21, hit Welch?s car head-on.

Welch was taken first to Citizens Memorial Hospital in Bolivar and later moved to St. John?s Hospital in Springfield where she was pronounced dead, according to the highway patrol. Breanna Shannon, 15, a passenger in English?s car was also seriously injured and taken to St. John?s hospital. English, Hawthorne, and another passenger, Craig Smith, 18, were taken to Citizen?s Memorial Hospital for treatment.

The investigating officer did not say what could have caused English to cross the center line. Since there was a fatality, an accident reconstruction will be performed to determine the specifics of the crash.
