SIOUX COUNTY, Iowa (WOWT) – One individual is useless after an SUV went off the highway in northwest Iowa.
In line with the Iowa State Patrol, a 2009 Mercury Mariner was heading westbound close to B40 and Garfield Avenue in Sioux County, Iowa, Sunday at 6:22 a.m.
The motive force of the Mariner left the highway for an unknown cause and went right into a ditch. The SUV then vaulted a culvert and hit an embankment.
Iowa State Patrol says the motive force, recognized as 25-year-old Reyes Felipe Lopez-Lopez, was pronounced useless on the scene.
Two passengers, a 32-year-old man and a 3-year-old woman, have been injured and brought to Sioux Middle Hospital. They have been later airlifted to Sioux Falls Space Hospital.
