Three Dead in Mossville Three-Vehicle Collision

The Peoria County Coroner has provided additional information regarding a tragic three-vehicle collision that occurred on Saturday afternoon in Mossville, resulting in the deaths of three individuals.

The incident took place at approximately 2:30 PM at the intersection of Route 6 and 29 in Mossville.

According to Coroner Jamie Harwood, preliminary investigations and eyewitness testimonies suggest that a van driven by 97-year-old Charles Mundy from Chillicothe was travelling southbound on Route 29 and failed to stop at a red traffic light at the intersection. This lapse in judgement triggered a chain reaction crash involving a pickup truck and a midsize SUV, both of which were making turns onto Route 29.

Unfortunately, Mundy succumbed to his injuries after being rushed to OSF St. Francis Medical Center.
