Webster man dies in crash at Moore Hill


A Webster County man died in a single-vehicle accident Sunday night on U.S. 60 West at Moore Hill in rural Crittenden County.

Crittenden County Sheriff’s Department reports say Bryan Baumann was the driver and only occupant of a 2003 Mitsubishi Galant that was traveling westbound when for an unknown reason exited the right side of the highway, went over a guardrail, down an embankment and struck a utility pole.

The crash happened shortly after 10 p.m.

Sheriff Wayne Agent said the wreck remains under investigation. 

It was the first fatal traffic accident in the county this year.
