Two Iowans died in separate crashes Sunday afternoon. The Iowa State Patrol reports the first accident happened at around 2:30-p.m. Sunday in southern Iowa’s Clarke County. Authorities say a 2007 Pontiac G6 driven by 33-year old Gregory A. Patterson, of Des Moines, was traveling south on 330th Street at a high rate of speed, when the vehicle went onto the left shoulder. Patterson over-corrected and drove onto the right shoulder, causing the car to go out of control and roll over several times.

Patterson died from his injuries. Two passengers in the vehicle, 20-year old Wyatt A. Pett, of Garden Grove, and 17-year old Ryan G. Coe, of Osceola, refused medical treatment at the scene. The accident remains under investigation.

The second accident happened at around 2:55-p.m. Sunday, in northern Iowa’s Worth County. The Patrol says a 2017 Nissan Murano, driven by 61-year old Peggy Julseth, of Kensett, was westbound in the eastbound lane of travel. Curtis Johnson, of Lake Mills, was driving a 2003 Dodge Ram, and was unable to avoid hitting the SUV. The vehicles collided near the intersection of 410th Street and Jonquil Avenue. Both drivers were transported to a local hospital, where Julseth died from her injuries.

The accident remains under investigation.
