A man from Arkansas was injured during a single-vehicle accident Thursday night, in Fremont County. The Iowa State Patrol says a 2010 Ford F-250 pickup driven by 55-year old Christopher Majka, of Bellevue, NE., was traveling in the left lane northbound on Interstate 29 at around mile marker eight, when the vehicle went out of control. The accident happened at around 7:20-p.m.

The pickup crossed into the right lane and into the east ditch, where it struck a pedestrian, 65-year old Thomas A. Ronsick, of Searcy, Arkansas. Ronsick was standing next to the road following a previous accident, when he was struck. He was transported by LifeNet helicopter to the Nebraska Medical Center. A report on his condition was not immediately available.

The State Patrol was assisted at the scene by deputies with the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office.
