KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A driver is in critical condition following a high-speed collision around 12:30 a.m. at 31st Street and Broadway Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri.

A white Ram 1500 pickup and black Mazda 3 were traveling south at high speed, when the Mazda side-swept the Ram, according to police.

According to police, the driver of the Ram was also transported to a local hospital with minor injuries.
