Two Dead Following Car Crash in McDonald County

Highway Patrol Troopers with Troop D are still investigating after dead people were killed in a one-car crash along Highway 59.

Both were pronounced dead. Neither of the victims were wearing seatbelts.

That brings Troop D’s fatality total for 2024 to 33.
