How the County Road 1130 Crash Unfolded
The crash happened at about 1 a.m. Sunday, three miles north of Clifton Hill. The driver, John Griggs, 18, of Ashland, was heading east in a 2023 Ford F-150, and the 19-year-old rode with him, the patrol's crash report said. The patrol said Griggs lost control, and the pickup left the right side of the road and overturned. The seriously injured passenger was brought to Moberly Regional Medical Center. According to the patrol, Griggs had minor injuries and declined treatment at the scene.
Where the Highway Patrol Case Stands
The Missouri State Highway Patrol said Griggs was arrested. He is suspected of felony DWI that caused serious physical injury, and of not keeping to the right half of the road. The patrol handled the crash report for the Randolph County wreck.
An arrest at the scene is often only the first step. Formal charges are usually decided later by prosecutors.
