GALENA, Mo. (AP) — A man who fled from police in a stolen car has died from injuries sustained in a southwest Missouri crash.
Daniel Hinton, 36, died at a Springfield hospital where he was taken after Monday’s crash.
The Stone County Sheriff’s Department says the driver took off after a deputy received a report about a suspicious vehicle near a Kimberling City business and tried to investigate.
Eventually, the vehicle rolled and the driver was ejected near a trailer park. Authorities determined that the car and several items inside the vehicle had been stolen from Eureka Springs, Arkansas.
