KANSAS CITY, Mo. — On Monday morning, the Kansas City Police Department released the identity of a woman who died in a two-vehicle crash Friday that also left another person in critical condition.

KCPD said 50-year-old Lori Broderick died on Friday after a gray Tesla 3 was speeding southbound on North Platte Purchase Drive in Kansas City, Missouri, and failed to navigate a curve in the road. The Tesla driver crossed the double yellow line and struck Broderick’s Buick Encore head-on.

Broderick was taken to a hospital and later died from her injuries, and the driver of the Tesla is currently in the hospital with critical injuries, according to police.

KCPD said this is the 37th fatality of 2024 compared to last year’s 23 by this time.
