PATTON MAN RECOVERING

A Patton man continues to be treated at a Cape Girardeau hospital following a fatal crash Sunday night on Highway 72 west of Millersville.

Terry Conrad, 44, of Patton was listed in good condition Monday at St. Francis Medical Center. Conrad suffered severe injuries as an unrestrained occupant of a full-size pickup truck.

Another occupant of the truck, William Mayberry, 53, of Patton, was treated and released Monday after receiving moderate injuries in the crash.

The patrol identified the single fatality as Donnie Grubb, 22, of Cape Girardeau.

The patrol said Grubb lost control of his eastbound vehicle as he crested a hill about 8 p.m. Sunday. He was broadsided by the pickup, splitting his car in half.

The vehicle's rear section then collided with a pickup driven by Howard Payne, 30, of Malden. Payne wasn't injured.
