(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa State Patrol reports two people were killed in two separate crashes early this (Wednesday) morning. State troopers say a speeding car refused to pull over on Interstate 235 in Des Moines just before 1 A-M. The chase led off the interstate and into downtown, where troopers say the car turned the wrong way on a one way street and hit another car head-on. The patrol says a juvenile in the fleeing car was killed, and four other people were injured.

In the second crash, also around 1 A-M, troopers say an SUV went out of control on Main Street in Keokuk, hit a utility pole, and killed the driver.

No names have been released.
