The Union County Sheriff’s Office reports an Afton woman was arrested Tuesday morning at her home, on a Union County warrant for Homicide by Vehicle/OWI. The charge against 61-year old Donna Jo Spare was in connection with a January 16th crash on Highway 34 about three-miles east of Creston. The accident claimed the life of 49-year old Deanne Lee Hoffman, of Creston.
The Iowa State Patrol said Spare was driving a 2001 Chevy Impala, when the car crossed the centerline on Highway 34 and struck a 1997 Buick LaSabre driven by Hoffman. Hoffman was transported to Greater Regional Medical Center in Creston, where she was pronounced dead.
Following her arrest Monday, Spare was released from the Union County Jail on $25,000 bond.
