(Lee County, Iowa) – Two juveniles on an electric bike were injured Tuesday afternoon in southeast Iowa, when the bike failed to stop at an intersection and was struck by a car. The Iowa State Patrol says the accident happened at around 4:45-p.m. in Fort Madison.
The report says a 2020 Honda Civic driven by 19-year-old Jordyn Burch, of Ft. Madison, was traveling eastbound through the intersection of Avenue E & 20th Street, when a southbound e-bike operated by a 9-year-old failed to stop. The bicycle struck the front driver’s side area of the car. The 9-year-old and a 12-year-old passenger on the bike were ejected during the collision.
The younger child was flown by helicopter to the University of Iowa Hospital. The 12-year-old was transported by ambulance to the hospital in Fort Madison. The names of the juveniles were not released.
