(Hardin County, Iowa) – A single-vehicle accident Thursday night in rural Hubbard claimed the life of a man from Texas. The Iowa State Patrol reports a 2007 Ford Explorer SUV driven by 30-year-old Pedro  Daniel Limon, of Eagle Pass, TX, was traveling south on U.S. Highway 65 at around 9:55-p.m., at a high rate of speed.

When Limon failed to negotiate a curve at J Avenue, his SUV went out of control and entered the east ditch, where it rolled several times and came to rest on its top. Limon – who was wearing a seat belt – died at the scene. The crash remains under investigation.

The Patrol was assisted by the Hardin County Sheriff’s Office, Hubbard Fire & EMS, and Hardin County E Squad.
