Council Bluffs, Iowa — An accident in western Iowa’s Pottawattamie County, Thursday, has claimed the life of a man from northwest Iowa.
The Iowa State Patrol says 63-year-old Donald Roller, of Sioux City, died when the 2006 Kenworth semi he was driving went out of control as it was negotiating the exit 27 curve on Interstate 80 eastbound to westbound I-880. The semi went off the road to the right and rolled down an embankment.
Roller was ejected during the crash that happened at around 3:36 p.m., Thursday. The Patrol says he was not wearing a seat belt. Both the semi and the driver came to rest in the ditch.
The accident remains under investigation.
