One person was hospitalized Monday evening after a motorcycle and a car collided in western Iowa’s Monona County. The Iowa State Patrol reports 25-year old Chad Noble, of Onawa, was transported by helicopter to Mercy Hospital in Sioux City, after the 1994 Yamaha he was operating collided with a 2009 Chevy Impala, driven by 41-year old Craig Beedle, of Onawa. The accident happened at around 6:25-p.m. at the intersection of Monona County roads K-45 and E-54.

Officials say the Impala was traveling south on K-45 and slowing to make a left turn onto E-54, as the Yamaha was traveling north on K-45. Beedle told authorities he didn’t see the cycle approaching and proceeded to make the turn. When the motorcycle struck the front of the car, the impact sent Noble airborne. He landed in a corn field on the north side of the intersection. Officials say he was wearing a helmet, but the extent of his injuries were not released.
