One person was injured early Thursday afternoon in Dallas County, when an Ogden Community School District bus carrying 20 students, rear-ended a vehicle. The Iowa State Patrol says 2005 Ford Focus driven by 18-year old Danielle Shreffler Mooers, of Minburn, was traveling south on Highway 169 at around 12:55-p.m., and had slowed or stopped to turn left into a farm entrance at the intersection with 180th Street while yielding to northbound traffic.
A 2019 Thomas school bus driven by 43-year old Lisa Marie Bunbar, of Ogden, was traveling southbound and failed to yield or stop for Shreffler-Mooers’ vehicle. The bus crashed into the rear of the car. No one onboard the bus was injured. Shreffler-Mooers was transported by helicopter to a hospital in Des Moines.
The accident remains under investigation.
