The Iowa State Patrol says a 2019 Dodge Ram Big Horn was northbound on Velvet Avenue, and approaching the intersection with 130th Street. A 2022 GMC Sierra pickup was westbound on 130th, approaching the same intersection.

The driver of the Dodge pickup, 31-year-old Alexander Fister, of Lytton, failed to yield before entering the intersection. Both vehicles collided in the intersection before coming to rest, with the GMC coming to rest in the northwest ditch.

Fister and the other driver, 69-year-old Dennis Hardy, of Churdan, were injured and transported to Stewart Memorial Hospital by Carroll County Ambulance. Hardy was not wearing a seat belt. The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office assisted at the scene.
