A Missouri man who was 11 when he shot and killed four students
and a teacher in Jonesboro, Arkansas, in 1998, was killed in a
car crash Saturday night in Independence County, Ark., according
to state police.

The two-vehicle crash unfolded near Cave City, about 100 miles
northeast of Little Rock. Drew Grant, 33, who had changed his
name from Andrew Golden, had been released from prison in 2007.

Daniel Petty, 59, of Essex, Missouri, was going south on Highway
167 in a Chevy Tahoe when he drove left of the center-line and
hit Grant's Honda CRV head-on at around 9 p.m., investigators
said.

Petty also died. Paramedics rushed three other people to
hospitals in Little Rock and Batesville, according to KAIT and a
state police preliminary summary of the crash. The conditions of
the injured were unknown.

Arkansas State Police spokesman Bill Sadler told KAIT that Grant
and Golden were "one in the same."

Golden and Mitchell Johnson were 11 and 13 when they set off a
fire alarm at Westside Middle School in Jonesboro. As kids and
faculty were evacuating, they shot and killed four students,
including 12-year-olds Paige Herring and Stephanie Johnson; 11-
year-olds Brittney Varner and Natalie Brooks; and teacher
Shannon Wright.

In 2017, a judge presiding over a lawsuit filed by the victims'
families awarded them $150 million in damages.

Golden and Johnson were tried as juveniles and were expected to
remain in custody until the age of 21, in accordance with
Arkansas law at the time. Johnson was released in 2005 and
Golden was released in 2007. Because they were tried as
juveniles, their records were sealed.
