MADISON COUNTY, Iowa [KCCI] — A Creston man faces several charges related to a fatal crash last month in Madison County. Authorities say 30-year-old Charles Lohoff, was driving recklessly, and under the influence, when he crashed around 4 a.m. Feb. 4 in the 1000 block of Pitzer Road, between Dexter and Earlham. Lohoff’s passenger, 42-year-old Jonathan Taylor, of Adel, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Lohoff was charged on March 18 with homicide by vehicle-operating under the influence, homicide by vehicle-reckless driving, and knowingly leaving the scene of an accident resulting in serious injury.

Criminal complaints say that black box data obtained from the truck Lohoff was driving show he was driving 110 mph right before the crash and 90 mph at the moment of collision with a telephone pole.
