In an update to our earlier story about a car-versus-pedestrian accident in Atlantic, Thursday, the Iowa State Patrol early this (Friday) morning, revealed additional information about the incident. Officials say 34-year old Jennifer Kay Lower, of Atlantic, was transported to the Cass County Memorial Hospital by Medivac Ambulance, before being flown by medical helicopter to Creighton University Medical Center in Omaha.

An investigation determined a 2006 Ford Mustang, driven by 52-year old Clark Alvin Carns, of Fontanelle, was traveling east in the left lane of Highway 6 just after 2:20-p.m., when Lower attempted to cross the Highway, at the intersection with Whitney Street (Highway 71).

The Patrol says charges resulting from the accident, are pending completion of an investigation.
