After a preliminary investigation, it was determined that Dudley did not use a crosswalk when attempting to cross Main Street. Dudley was crossing east to west on this four- lane undivided roadway between 8th and 9th Street, when the crash occurred.
The Joplin Police Department wants to remind citizens to exercise caution when crossing roadways and should always use designated crosswalks or controlled intersections to reduce the chances of serious crashes.

This will be just like the Dr. Joseph and his hit and run kid's Case in Kansas, just like - the Prosecutor that dropped charges in a deadly hit-and-run crash in McDonald County.
Right before Thanksgiving, the McDonald County Prosecutor’s Office dropped “leaving the scene of a deadly crash” charges against Gloria Trejo, 53.
These Prosecutors and Judges need to be removed from Office - The Victims of these hit-and-runs and their Families are not represented by our Court Systems. What if these Victims were your Family, what if these Victims were your Friends - Where is the Justice?
