A third victim of a single-vehicle wreck on County Road 1246 in West Point Friday evening died Monday at a Huntsville Hospital.

Matthew Moore, 30, of Vinemont died at approximately 11:30 a.m. according to hospital spokeswoman Debbie Watwood.

The condition of wreck victim Cynthia Bright, 44, also of Vinemont, has been upgraded to fair, and she was moved from ICU, Watwood said.

Moore is one of three people who died as a result of Friday night’s wreck. Two other passengers, Steve Faulkner, 50, of Vinemont and Scherry Clark, 18 of Hartselle also died.

Both were pronounced dead at the scene according to Cullman County Coroner Gary Murphree. Funeral services for Faulkner and Clark were held Monday.

Bright was driving a 1995 Ford when the crash occurred near State Highway 157.

None of the wreck victims were wearing seat belts, State Troopers officials said. The cause of the accident is still under investigation.
