According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Loving was traveling on Missouri Route F. He was nearly 1/10 of a mile from Bull Creek when his truck crossed the center line and struck another pickup truck driven by Hubert Puckett in the opposite direction and occupied by Sharon Puckett.

Both trucks were totaled in the 2:50 p.m. accident.
