A Doniphan woman was injured Friday afternoon in a one-vehicle accident on Highway 142, in what the Missouri State Highway Patrol has reported as an accident involving suspected drug intoxication.
Cheryl L. Neldon, 57, was eastbound just after 4 p.m. when the accident occurred, one and half miles east of Doniphan.
According to a patrol report, Neldon’s 2005 Dodge Ram ran off the right side of the road and struck a tree.
Neldon was arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated (drugs); operating a vehicle in a careless and imprudent manner, causing an accident; and no insurance.
She was released for medical care and taken by ambulance to Poplar Bluff Regional Medical Center.
