ATV accident in Marion County results in serious injuries

An accident involving an all-terrain vehicle on private property along County Road 297, about 2.5 miles south of Durham, left a local woman with serious injuries on the evening of June 24. At approximately 7:30 p.m., a Yamaha Grisley ATV driven by Adam Mast, 35, of Durham, Missouri, went out of control and overturned. The accident resulted in both the driver and his passenger, Diana Mast, 47, being ejected from the vehicle.

Diana Mast suffered serious injuries in the crash and was airlifted to University Hospital in Columbia, Missouri. Neither Adam nor Diana Mast were reportedly wearing seat belts at the time of the crash. The vehicle was removed from the scene by family members. Emergency services, including the Ewing Fire Department, Marion County Sheriff’s Department and local EMS, arrived at the scene to assist.

This incident highlights the potential dangers associated with the use of off-road vehicles, particularly on uneven terrain and without the use of safety equipment.
