Kansas City, KS (June 7, 2025) – On Saturday afternoon, June 7, a multi-vehicle crash resulted in multiple injuries on I-635 Northbound near milepost 3.9, approximately 0.3 miles north of K-32 in Wyandotte County. The collision occurred around 12:20 p.m. and involved eight vehicles. At least two individuals sustained suspected minor injuries in the incident.
According to authorities, the crash began when a 2011 GMC Sierra traveling in the number two lane lost control and struck a 2011 Acura TL.

Emergency crews responded promptly, with at least two drivers—Anthony Rubio Rosales of Kansas City, KS, and Alexis Spaulding of Kansas City, MO—transported to KU Medical Center for treatment of minor injuries.

Chain-Reaction Crashes and Highway Safety in Kansas
Multi-vehicle collisions like this highlight the risks of sudden loss of control on high-speed roadways. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), rear-end and chain-reaction crashes are among the most common types of highway accidents, particularly during busy travel hours. These crashes can quickly escalate in severity due to the limited time drivers have to react. In Kansas and nationwide, driver inattention, speeding, and weather-related conditions are leading contributors to such incidents.
