The Iowa State Patrol says one person was killed in a two-vehicle accident Thursday morning in Boone.
Reportedly, a 2003 model Ford Ranger pickup truck driven by 89-year-old Dale Ray Crouse of Boone was traveling southbound on Montana Avenue when he failed to yield to an eastbound 2006 model Ford Mustang car driven by 17-year-old Aubrey Rose Alexander of Templeton.
Alexander was unable to avoid a collision and struck the Crouse pickup. Dale Crouse died of his injuries when he arrived at the Boone County Hospital. Alexander escaped injury.
The accident remains under investigation.
