The State Patrol says a four-year-old was restrained in a car seat in Falconer’s vehicle. The driver of the Explorer, now identified as 33-year-old Mikyaela Bacon of Ainsworth, and another unidentified subject were transported via West Liberty Ambulance to the UNiversity of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics with unspecified injuries.
The accident remains under investigation. Court records show a search warrant was served on Bacon on Monday.
