A head-on crash Thursday night in Harrison County has claimed the life of a Dunlap man. The Iowa State Patrol says 75-year old Rex Rains, of Dunlap, was wearing his seat belt but died from injuries he suffered, at the scene of the crash on Highway 30, about two and one-half miles southwest of Woodbine. Officials say Rains’ 2003 Dodge Neon was traveling west on Highway 30 at around 9:40-p.m., when the car left to the center of the 100-percent ice and snow covered road and into the path of an eastbound 2014 Mack semi, driven by 47-year old Scott Grandstaff, of Omaha. The truck was registered to Farner Bocken, out of Carroll.

After the car and semi collided head-on, both vehicles came to rest in the south ditch of Highway 30. The accident remains under investigation by the Iowa State Patrol and Harrison County Sheriff’s Office.
