Killed in the wreck that occurred just north of DeKalb, Missouri, on Southwest Old North Road, just east of Highway JJ, was 18-year-old Cassandra Donaldson, who is identified in a Missouri State Highway Patrol report as a passenger in a GMC pickup truck, driven by 18-year-old Wyatt Gardner, of Rushville, Missouri.

Gardner was transported to Mosaic Lifecare, in Saint Joseph, Missouri with minor injuries.

A 15-year-old male passenger was not hurt.

According to the Patrol's report, the fatal wreck happened when Gardner was northbound on Highway JJ, and attempted to turn right on Old North Road. Gardner lost control of the truck, which went off the south side of the roadway, and down a steep embankment, before stopping, upside down, in a creek.

The Patrol reports that none of the occupants of the vehicle were buckled up when the wreck occurred around 11:40 Sunday night.
