An accident in Fort Dodge early Saturday killed a 25-year-old Fort Dodge woman and injured three other people. The Iowa State Patrol identified the fatality as Jessica Ann Nickless. Nickless was the passenger in a 2007 Chevrolet pickup truck driven by 21-year-old Abram Urbina Galvin also of Fort Dodge.

Reportedly the truck driven by Urbina Galvin was heading westbound of Fifth Avenue South in Fort Dodge at an apparent high rate of speed when he lost control into a curve leading onto a bridge where it went off the side of the bridge down an embankment and landed on the railroad tracks below.

Nickless was ejected from the truck and was pronounced dead at the scene. Urbina Galvin and the two other passengers, 19-year-old Grant J. Duncan of Clare and 20-year-old Austin J. Scott of Palmer, were taken to Trinity Regional Medical Center in Fort Dodge for treatment. The accident remains under investigation by the State Patrol and the Fort Dodge Police.
