(Update to earlier report) The Iowa State Patrol says two people were injured in a single-vehicle crash Sunday afternoon on Interstate 80 east of Walnut. Officials say the driver of a 2007 Toyota Camry, 34-year old Osam Adam Mohamed Juma, of Philadephia, PA, and his passenger, 23-year old Ali Khamis, of Fort Morgan, CO., who were not wearing their seat belts, were transported by Walnut Rescue to the Cass County Hospital.

The pair were injured when the car they were in went out of control at around 4:17-p.m. as it was westbound and crossed the median before crossing the eastbound lanes at the 46.6-mile marker. The car overturned onto its top and came to rest in the south ditch. The accident remains under investigation.
