Administrator from Webster City dies in bike accident

September 30, 2019 By Radio Iowa Contributor

A Webster City employee was hit and killed while bicycling early Saturday near Pierson in Woodbury County.

Reportedly, an eastbound 2017 Ford Transit van operated by 19-year-old Aaron J. Albert of Mondamin was traveling on Woodbury County Road D-12 when the van accidentally struck the rear of an eastbound bicycle operated by 57-year-old Kent Harfst of Webster City.

The collision occurred near the crest of a hill in dark conditions. Harfst came to rest in the south ditch with critical injuries. He was transported to a Sioux City hospital where he died. Albert escaped injury.

Harfst was the assistant city manager and park and recreation director for the city of Webster City.
