A weekend crash in central Iowa claimed two lives and left two other people badly hurt.
Des Moines police say a pickup truck was trying to pass slow traffic on a rural road and hit an on-coming SUV head-on.
The driver of the SUV, 56-year-old Kathryn Kinley, was killed, as was a passenger, 13-year-old Nariyo Lee — a friend of Kinley’s grandson.
That 12-year-old grandson, Kaden Kinley, survived the crash but is hospitalized in critical condition, as is the pickup’s driver, 28-year-old Ryan Rench.
All were from Des Moines.
