The crash happened when the car struck a coal train on the north side of the railroad tracks on Harrison County road K-45.
Missouri Valley FD received mutual aid from the Modale Volunteer Fire Department, who took the lead, because officials say “It was difficult for us to get to that side due to crossings blocked, but we were able to assist in fighting the fire and providing medical services.” The Harrison County Sheriff’s Office and Iowa State Patrol assisted at the scene.

(Radio Iowa) – Former President Donald Trump swooped into the Iowa State Fair this weekend, drew big crowds and touted endorsements from a group of U-S House members from Florida — the state where his chief rival is governor.
Three other G-O-P presidential candidates joined Governor Kim Reynolds for one of her Fair Side Chats Saturday morning. Thirty-eight-year-old businessman Vivek Ramaswamy presented himself as the way for Republicans to win young voters and he rapped to an Eminem song as he left the stage.
Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley didn’t say Trump’s name, but offered this suggestion: “It’s time for a new generational leader. It is time that we leave the negativity behind, the drama behind.” Florida Governor Ron DeSantis joined Reynolds, too. A bit later, a reporter asked DeSantis about Trump’s refusal to sign a loyalty pledge to support whomever Republicans nominate in 2024.
“If someone’s not willing to do that, that just shows you their campaign is more about them than the broader public and the American people,” DeSantis said. As DeSantis was at the Pork Tent on the fairgrounds, Trump’s plane flew overhead. DeSantis left, the crowd size grew and they erupted when Trump arrived at the same spot. Trump didn’t flip pork chops, but signed hats — and gave a couple of his hallmark red hats to two young girls hanging over the fence.
Trump then ducked into the Animal Learning Center. A W-H-O T-V reporter asked Trump why he wasn’t joining Governor Reynolds on the fairgrounds and Trump repeated his beef that Reynolds hasn’t endorsed him.”You know I helped the governor a lot. I won the race for the governor, but I like the governor,” Trump said. Reynolds has said she’s remaining neutral in order to welcome all the candidates — and she credits Iowa voters for her 2018 win. DeSantis says Trump’s criticism of Reynolds is out of bounds.
Trump had several of the Floridians who’ve endorsed him speak to the crowd at a bar on the fairgrounds, then Trump left the crowd with this message:
Democrats Robert F. Kennedy, Junior and Marianne Williamson — who are running against President Biden — also campaigned at the fair this weekend.

The pickup went out of control, left the road toward the east, and came to rest in a ditch. Shimer suffered nose and hand pain, and was transported by EMS to the Greater Regional Hospital, in Creston. His passenger, 17-year-old John Brayden Cook, of Diagonal, was transported to the hospital by a parent, before law enforcement arrived on the scene.

(Sioux County, Iowa) – A 17-year-old from Rock Valley was injured during a motorcycle accident Sunday afternoon northeast of Hawarden, in northwest Iowa. The Iowa State Patrol reports the accident happened at around 3:25-p.m. at 390th Street and Cherry Avenue.
Officials say a 20111 Kawasaki Vulcan motorcycle operated by 55-year-old Jamie Kelsheimer, of Windom, MN, was traveling northwest on Cherry Avenue. As it approached the curve, Kelsheimer moved over to avoid sand and gravel in the road. He was not able to traverse the curve and lost control of the motorcycle, which toppled onto its side before flipping and landing in the north ditch.
Kelsheimer and his unidentified 17-year-old passenger were ejected from the cycle. The teen was transported by Hawarden EMS to the hospital in Hawarden.
