Dailey was pronounced dead at the scene. This is the ninth fatality in traffic crashes worked by Troop D of the Missouri State Highway Patrol in 2022. 

Meanwhile earlier in the morning, a Stone County Couple sustained moderate injuries when their car was hit from behind by a vehicle that fled the scene. The accident report indicates the accident occurred just after midnight on Highway 76 in Cape Fair when the car driven by Donnie Batson was struck while at a stop sign.
