A child passenger in a vehicle involved in a collision Friday evening in Carroll County, was flown to a hospital in Des Moines. The crash occurred east of Manning on Highway 141 near Eagle Avenue, at around 4:30-p.m.

Authorities say witnesses reported that a vehicle was stopped to negotiate a turn and was rear-ended by another vehicle, forcing it into oncoming traffic where it was struck by the third vehicle. A female child passenger, Kori Beckendorf, suffered serious injuries during the multi-vehicle collision, and has undergone a couple of surgeries, but is expected to recover.

Highway 141 was closed to through traffic for nearly an hour following the crash while emergency crews were on the scene and the vehicles were removed. Additional information is currently not available.

A GoFundme account has been set up to help pay  for Kori Beckendorf’s medical expenses. https://www.gofundme.com/koribeckendorf
