Two people have lost their lives after an accident on US-400 just south of Fredonia.

 The accident happened around 6:30 Wednesday morning about a mile and a half south of the Fredonia roundabout. 76-year-old Donald Christeson of Liberty and 61-year-old Teresa Mansfield of Independence were killed when they attempted to make a left turn onto US-400 from Jewell Road. Christeson failed to yield during the turn and was struck by a semi-truck driven by 74-year-old Carl Studebaker of Fredonia. Studebaker was uninjured in the accident.
