A 5-year-old Carthage boy was killed in a two-vehicle accident at 3:50 p.m. Monday on Missouri Highway 96 at Route B, five miles east of Carthage in Jasper County, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

The patrol said the Castanon vehicle was westbound and was followed by a tractor-trailer driven by Betty J. Ray, 59, of Neosho. The Castanon car slowed to make a left turn and was struck by the tractor-trailer, which was attempting to pass the Castanon car, the patrol said.
