Early Monday morning, a car driving on Ward Parkway drove over the curb and crashed into a tree. The passenger is in critical condition and the driver was dead at the scene. According to the Kansas City Police Department, this was the 64th road fatality this year.

Last year during this time their was 62 road fatalitys. The driver was speeding before the crash happened, which happens to be the largest cause of road fatalities. Although it might be just 5 miles over the speed limit and ‘not a big deal’, it can kill someone or yourself.

Hannah Mueller, Copy Editor
Hi, my name is Hannah Mueller and this is my second year in SPUB and I am one of our copy editors this year. I am so excited to be more creative with my stories and designing this year, as well as be a voice for our student body. Journalism matters to me because everyone's voice needs a chance to be heard and many topics are important but aren't talked about. Other than journalism, I am involved with theater and volleyball. I also enjoy reading and hanging out with my friends. I am beyond excited to see what is to come for this year.
