Minivan and SUV Crash at S 36th St Injures 2 in Omaha, NE
Omaha, NE (June 20, 2026) – A woman and a child were injured in a collision at South 36th Street and Q Street in Omaha, Nebraska, on Friday, June 19. The accident happened in the westbound lanes and involved a white minivan and a white Ford Escape.
The 30-year-old woman had trouble staying conscious and was limping after the crash. An 8- to 9-year-old girl also had trouble staying conscious and suffered a possible leg injury.
Officials did not release either person’s name after the wreck. The
Omaha Police Department continues to review the circumstances of the collision.
We hope both the woman and the girl recover fully.
What Are Your Legal Options After a Crash in Omaha, NE?
After a crash in Omaha, you may be able to file a personal injury claim against the at-fault driver. Nebraska law may allow compensation if you are less than 50 percent at fault. Early records can help protect your claim.
In Omaha, intersections along Dodge Street, L Street, and the 72nd Street corridor carry heavy traffic throughout the day. Crossings near Saddle Creek Road and Center Street also sit close to neighborhoods where families often walk. Side-impact collisions can cause serious injuries.
Once you are safe, get a full medical exam, even if the pain feels minor. Injuries such as whiplash, concussions, and internal bruising can take days to show symptoms. Early medical records can also help connect your injuries to the crash.
Because children are smaller and still developing, the same impact can affect them more seriously than adults. Their bones, neck, and brain remain vulnerable during growth. A possible leg injury may also need careful follow-up to protect long-term mobility.
Even if an insurance company contacts you quickly, avoid accepting a settlement before you know the full cost of treatment. Early offers may not account for ongoing care. A clearer medical picture can put your claim in a stronger position.
Insurance claims can become more complicated when both an adult and a child are injured. An
Omaha car accident lawyer can review fault, gather medical records, calculate separate damages, and handle insurance talks while the family focuses on treatment and recovery.
