A Hollister woman, a suspect who had been involved in a law enforcement pursuit was run over in a field 1,000 feet from Kimberling City at the end of Jim Linegar Lane 10:51 a.m. today.
According to the Highway Patrol report, Kimberling City Police Sgt. Aaron Hoeft, 37, was driving slowly through an empty field with extremely high vegetation searching for two suspects who had been involved in a motor vehicle pursuit.
Due to the height of the vegetation, Hoeft, driving a 2017 Ford Explorer, was unable to see the suspects lying down in the field and drove over Sarah R. Sanders, 29, Hollister.
Sanders was flown to Cox South Hospital, Springfield, to be treated for serious injuries.
The Patrol report did not provide any further information about the pursuit or what happened to the other suspect.
