Elderly Woman Hit by Pick Up Truck

An elderly woman lost her life in Iowa last week when she crashed into another vehicle.

News sources report that police are still looking into the truck accident that happened on an interstate in Pottawattamie County on Thursday. According to eyewitness reports, the 80-year-old woman was heading south when she stopped her car in the road for no apparent reason. As a result of the abrupt stop, she was rear-ended by a pickup truck.

While the driver of the pickup truck was not injured, the elderly woman lost her life shortly after the accident. Her husband, who was a passenger at the time, was transported to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Both he and his wife were wearing their seat belts.
