Names released of victims who fell through ice and died on Storm Lake

January 22, 2019 By Radio Iowa Contributor

The Buena Vista County Sheriff’s office has released more information about a fatal accident on Storm Lake.

The two people who died when a car broke through the iced-over lake late Sunday afternoon are identified as 40-year old Zackary Newlon of Anthon and his 8-year old son.

Two of Newlon’s other children, a 9-year-old girl and a 5-year-old girl, were airlifted to a Sioux Falls hospital. There’s no word on their condition.

Investigators say it remains unclear why Newlon drove the vehicle onto the frozen lake.
