An adult male and a teenager were injured during a pursuit that ended in a crash Saturday night, in north central Iowa’s Hamilton County. The Iowa State Patrol reports a Trooper was attempting to stop a 2013 VW at around 10:45-p.m., when the driver, 18-year old Khalil Justin Crawley, of Waterloo, attempted to flee.

The vehicle took off at a high rate of speed. When Crawley lost control of the car, it entered a ditch and rolled several times. An unidentified 16-year-old from Waterloo – whose name was withheld – was flown by Mercy 1 Aircare helicopter to Mercy Hospital in Des Moines. The teen was not wearing a seat belt. Crawley – who was buckled-up – was transported by Ellsworth Ambulance to Mary Greeley Hospital, in Ames.

The accident, which occurred near County Roads R-77 and D-41, remains under investigation. The Patrol was assisted at the scene by Hamilton County Deputies, Jewell and Ellsworth Police and Ambulance.
