One person was taken to the hospital with critical injuries Tuesday afternoon after a rollover crash involving three vehicles in south Kansas City, according to police.
Officers were dispatched shortly before 12:30 p.m. to a collision at the off-ramp of southbound U.S. 71 Highway and Bannister Road. Crash investigators determined the driver of a black Lexus SUV heading west on Bannister failed to stop for a red light, according to a written statement from Kansas City police.
