Terrible Crash on I-80 Leaves 6 Dead

There's been a serious two-vehicle wreck on I-80 near Colfax, Iowa that killed six people. The collision happened on Saturday morning. A westbound minivan carrying seven people is reported to have drifted across the median and striking an eastbound vehicle head-on. I wonder if the driver of the minivan fell asleep. Terrible really five were declared dead at the scene; and a 5-year-old child was flown to Iowa City where they later died. Miraculously three passengers in the minivan survived with minor injuries. I-80 was shut down from Exit 159 to 164 for about 4-hours. Colfax is in Jasper County, Iowa.

Interstate 35 is a part of the United States Interstate Highway system running north-south from Duluth, Minnesota (at an intersection known as the Can of Worms) to Laredo, Texas. Its length is 1568.38 miles (2,524.06 km).

The law firms mentioned in this article work in cooperation to assist injured clients who have accidents in one state, but live in another state. This arrangement allows the client to get better service with no additional cost. Please call us sooner rather than later, because accidents on I-35 tend to be complicated by distance, speeds and semi-truck drivers being from far away places.
