A man from Guthrie County died Friday evening during a rollover accident in Fremont County. The Iowa State Patrol says they believe 54-year old Daniel Sheeder of Guthrie Center, had a medical issue before the pickup truck he was driving left the road as it was traveling east on Wausbonsie Avenue, at around 6-p.m.

The 2002 Ford F-150 entered the south ditch, later recrossed the road and entered the north ditch, where it hit a utility pole and rolled twice. The accident happened just east of Bartlett. Authorities say Sheeder was wearing his seat belt.  Sheeder, the father-in-law to Fremont-Mills High School football coach Jeremy Christiansen was reportedly on his way to the Fremont-Mills vs Southwest Valley football game at the time of the crash.
