Wind turbine crashes down in Schuyler County

A wind turbine came crashing down in Schuyler County late last week.

It happened Friday night on Fairview Drive off County Route J in Queen City.

It was part of Ameren’s wind farm along Highway 63 that was installed in 2021.

Several viewers messaged KTVO with pictures, saying they could see the tower without its face or blades from the highway.

KTVO reached out to Ameren for more information on what happened.

In an email, they responded: “Ameren Missouri enacted our response plan and secured the surrounding area. The situation caused no injuries and we will continue to assess the situation and provide further information as necessary.”
