A man being pursued by the Iowa State Patrol late Saturday night in central Iowa’s Warren County, was killed when the pickup he was driving went out of control and crashed into a tree in New Virginia.
19-year old Jacob Bryan Fejeran, of Chariton, who was wearing a seat belt, was driving a 2017 Chevy pickup westbound on County Road G-76 at a high rate of speed, trying to elude an ISP vehicle with its lights/siren on. As the pickup entered the City of New Virginia, it ran a stop sign at the intersection of West Street (CR-45) and continued at a high rate of speed for one block, where it vaulted over Border Street and entered a private yard.
The pickup then hit a large tree before coming to rest. Fejeran died at the scene of the crash, that happened at around 11:35-p.m., Saturday.
