***Update***
All lanes are now open on Wentzville Parkway, thank you for your patience as we cleared the scene.
Both Westbound lanes of Wentzville Parkway and one Eastbound lane is closed near Parkway Ridge Boulevard by QuikTrip off Highway 61 due to a three-vehicle accident.
One Eastbound lane is open and traffic is moving very slowly and is congested. Officers are working the scene, trying to reopen the roadway.
Please seek an alternative route or avoid the area while first responders work the scene.
Thank you and be safe! ... See MoreSee Less

Hoping it isn't school kids, and that no one is seriously hurt! Having that traffic light there is dangerous, in my opinion!

Thank you for hosting!
I bet these students enjoyed the tour and learned some valuable safety tips.
Mission Focused ? … Hiring idiots like Jonah McHaffie … that’s how you sink your department !!! A spoiled rotten immature little brat who still lives at home with mommy and daddy !!! Can’t even exercise the nor prove the responsibility of being able to live on his own … yet is now given the awesome responsibility of carrying a gun and making life and death decisions ! Sad !!! Very sad … Guess Wentzville is desperate !!!
Please join us in congratulating Corporal Plack and Officer Cozzi on receiving the CIT Law Enforcement Commendation Award for their exceptional work during recent calls for service involving a life-threatening emergency and a juvenile experiencing a severe crisis.
Corporal Plack responded to a call of an individual attempting self-harm inside a running vehicle. With only a vague description of the residence and no specific address, he worked with the caller to identify the correct location.
When he arrived, Corporal Plack heard a vehicle running inside the garage. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, he located an unlocked rear door and immediately made entry. Inside, he was met with an overwhelming odor of exhaust fumes and discovered two vehicles running in the enclosed garage.
Without hesitation, Corporal Plack opened the garage door to begin ventilating the area and continued his search. He located a barely conscious individual against the back wall of the garage and quickly helped them to a safe location where they could receive medical treatment.
Corporal Plack then re-entered the hazardous environment and located a second occupant, safely escorting them outside as well.
Corporal Plack's rapid assessment, courage and willingness to place himself in danger to help others undoubtedly prevented what could have been a tragic outcome.
We are proud of Corporal Plack and the professionalism, bravery and commitment to service he demonstrated when it mattered most.
Officer Cozzi responded to a call involving a juvenile that was visibly overwhelmed, distressed and having difficulty self-regulating. Recognizing the situation required patience and understanding, Officer Cozzi used his crisis intervention training to slow things down, build rapport and establish trust.
Through a compassionate and patient approach, Officer Cozzi calmed the juvenile and ultimately persuaded him to voluntarily and peacefully accept transportation to the hospital.
The juvenile’s mother shared that previous law enforcement encounters during similar situations had routinely required the use of force. Officer Cozzi’s ability to recognize the individual's needs, communicate effectively and use de-escalation techniques helped prevent the situation from escalating while protecting the juvenile’s safety and dignity.
We are proud of the professionalism, compassion and dedication Officer Cozzi demonstrated during this difficult situation. His actions are an excellent example of how crisis intervention training and a patient, compassionate approach can make a meaningful difference for individuals and their families.
Congratulations, Corporal Plack and Officer Cozzi. Thank you for your commitment to serving our community.
