A woman from Pocahontas County (in northwest Iowa) died in a single-vehicle, rollover accident Saturday afternoon, about 10-miles west of Pocahontas. The Iowa State Patrol reports 19-year old Rebecca Hansen, of Pocahontas, was driving a 2006 Pontiac Torrent eastbound on Highway 3 at around 2:23-p.m., when the SUV went out of control and into the north ditch.

When the vehicle rolled over, Hansen – who was not wearing her seat belt – was ejected, and died from her injuries. The accident remains under investigation. Pocahontas Fire/EMS assisted the Patrol at the crash scene.
