How they died
Pursuit
At 3:49 a.m., a Linn County deputy saw a silver Dodge Grand Caravan without license plates that appeared to be prowling a residential area. After the minivan's driver ran a stop sign, the deputy tried to stop him, but the driver refused, and the deputy pursued. The chase went south from Atkins, then west on Highway 30. The pursuit continued south on Highway 21 into Belle Plaine and east on 77th Street Drive, until the pursuit ended at 4:09 a.m. when the driver went off the road and struck a culvert, killing the driver and injuring a passenger.
