Authorities in Minnesota are now releasing the name of the Iowan who was killed in a crash in that state over the weekend. The Minnesota State Patrol says a car failed to yield at a median crossing late Friday night and was hit by a semi-truck along Highway 52 in Goodhue County. The car was driven by 22-year-old Jacob Nelson, of St. Ansgar, who was injured in the crash. His passenger, 22-year-old Cody Squier, of St. Angar was killed. The truck driver wasn’t hurt. Troopers say both of the Iowans were belted in and there’s no sign alcohol was a factor.
