Simon Coblentz, 18, of Columbia was driving southbound on Burksville Street in a black Dodge Charger and impact was made before Burton had completed the turn.
Adair EMS as well as The Columbia Fire Department also responded to the scene. Coblentz waived treatment by EMS but was later taken to TJ Samson by private vehicle.
