A Cass County man has died from injuries he suffered during a rollover accident late Monday night, near Cumberland. The brother of Doug Miller, of Cumberland, told KJAN News the 37-year old died at Cass County Memorial Hospital. Miller, who went by the name “Doug Evans,” was a part-time announcer at KJAN and formerly worked at Meredith Communications in Atlantic.

The Cass County Sheriff’s Office has not yet released details of the accident, but according to dispatch reports, Cumberland Fire and Rescue and Medivac Ambulance were called to the scene off a gravel road east of Cumberland at around 10:54-p.m.

Miller was transported to CCMH by Medivac Ambulance. Life Flight helicopter was launched from Clarinda and was enroute to CCMH just before 11:30-p.m., but Miller succumbed to his injuries before it arrived.

The accident remained under investigation. Miller leaves behind his children, Evan and Brodie, his brother, Scotty Miller, of Marshalltown, and other family members. KJAN extends our condolences to the family on their loss.
