A pedestrian struck by a semi in Page County, Thursday afternoon, has died from injuries suffered in the accident. The Iowa State Patrol reports a 2011 Peterbilt tractor-trailer driven by 35-year old Justin Wayne Nall, of Savannah, MO., was traveling north on Highway 71 near the intersection with Nodaway Valley Park a little after 2-p.m., when a pedestrian – 50-year old Joey Clark McComb, of Clarinda, walked into the southbound lane.

McComb then proceeded to walk back into the northbound lane in the path of the semi, before being struck. He was transported by Clarinda Rescue to the Clarinda Regional Health Care Center, where he succumbed to his injuries.
