(KNZA)--An additional charge of second-degree murder has been filed against a St. Joseph, Missouri man in connection with a fatal northwest Missouri crash.
KQ2-TV reports bond was denied during a hearing Tuesday in an Andrew County courtroom for 52-year-old Roger Moe.
Moe already faced two felonies and two misdemeanors in connection with the October 17 crash on I-29 north of St. Joseph that claimed the life of 22-year-old Austin Cross, a student at Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville .
Authorities say Moe was allegedly driving drunk at 110 miles an hour on the wrong side of the interstate when he collided head-on with a SUV.
Cross, who was a passenger in the SUV, died from his injuries last week. The driver of his vehicle suffered minor injuries.
Moe is to make his next appearance in court November 27.
