SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) – Authorities say a 43-year-old Sioux City man has been killed after falling partway out of his pickup. The accident occurred about 1 a.m. Saturday. The Iowa State Patrol says Davon Kieler was driving alone when he fell out of the driver’s side door and lost control of the truck. The patrol says the door crushed Kieler when his truck sideswiped a parked vehicle.

The patrol says alcohol was a factor in the accident. Kieler was not wearing a seat restraint.
