Two Injured In Crash Near Harris

Harris, Iowa — A 64-year old Lake Park man and his 13-year old passenger were injured in a single-vehicle crash early Monday afternoon near Harris.

According to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, the crash occured about 1:40 Monday afternoon when a 1989 Ford Ranger pickup, driven by 64-year old David Hansen, of Lake Park, was eastbound on 130th Street. Deputies say the right side wheels of the truck dropped off the roadway, and when Hansen over-corrected, he lost control, with the truck entering the north ditch and rolling, coming to rest on its top.

Authorities say Hansen, and a passenger, 13-year old Ethan Nelson, of Lake Park, were both transported to the Osceola Community Hospital in Sibley by the Osceola County Ambulance.

Deputies say Hansen was cited for Failure to Maintain Control. The pickup was termed a total loss.
