A semi tractor-trailer driver from Washington State was injured during a rollover accident near the Marne exit, Friday afternoon. The Iowa State Patrol reports 68-year old Roumen Roussev, of Vancouver, WA., was traveling eastbound on Interstate 80 near the Cass-Pottawattamie County line at around 3:40-p.m., when he lost control of the 2012 International semi he was driving.

The rig entered the south ditch near the 49 mile-marker and toppled onto its side. Roussev, who was wearing his seat belt, suffered from serious injuries and was transported by Atlantic Medivac to the UNMC in Omaha.

The Pottawattamie and Cass County Sheriff’s Offices assisted at the scene, along with Marne Fire and Rescue and the Atlantic Fire Department.
