A man from Indianola was killed in a three-car collision on Thursday morning, police reported.

Loren Goodwin, 67, passed away during surgery following the collision, as reported in a news release. Four others involved, two of which were kids, were wounded and taken to Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines.

The accident took place a little before 9 a.m. when a southbound car with driver Matthew James Stanton, 30, of Urbandale behind the wheel crossed the center line of U.S. Highway 65/69 near Hillcrest Avenue in Indianola. Stanton’s vehicle struck the side of one car before it hit Goodwin’s vehicle in a head-on collision by the Circle B entrance.

The vehicle that was hit on the side was driven by a 33-year-old woman from Norwalk who was transporting two kids in the car as well.

The current conditions of the four injured in the incident were not given.
