One Dies In Car / Pedestrian Accident

 

 A man has died after a car/pedestrian accident in Miami.

 Police officials say the incident took place Monday night in the 900 block of B St. NE. Authorities found the suspect vehicle about half a block north of the accident, at the truck owner’s home. The investigation revealed that the driver, Clay McCormick, of Miami, began driving south on B St. NE with the victim, Chase Langston, of Parsons, on the hood of the vehicle. McCormick accelerated, then slammed on the brakes, throwing Langston from the hood of the truck. McCormick was arrested for DUI; Langston was transported to a Miami hospital, then transferred to a Joplin hospital by helicopter in critical condition. Langston died yesterday from injuries suffered during the incident.

 Further charges are expected in the ongoing investigation.
