A fiery, single-vehicle crash this (Wednesday) morning in eastern Iowa resulted in the death of a man from Wisconsin. The Iowa State Patrol reports a 2011 Nissan Versa driven by 60-year old Rick Inman, of Glendale, WI., exited eastbound Interstate 80 at around 2:47-a.m. at the intersection of U Avenue, and failed to stop at the end of the exit ramp. The vehicle traveled across U Avenue and left the road before entering a ditch. It vaulted over a creek and impacted the ground on the east side of the water before erupting in flames and coming to rest in the ditch. Inman died at the scene.

The Patrol was assisted at the scene by the Iowa County Sheriff’s Office, Williamsburg Police and Williamsburg Fire and Rescue.
