Davenport, Ia- A high-speed pursuit led to a deadly crash in eastern Iowa on Sunday.
Radio Iowa’s Matt Kelley reports that The state patrol says a trooper tried to pull a car over for a traffic stop on Interstate 80 eastbound near the I-280 interchange. The car refused to stop and led the trooper on a chase. The suspect took a Davenport exit, lost control, and collided with another car.
The suspect’s car rolled and the driver was killed. She’s identified as 31-year-old Kathryn Burkhead of Donahue. Troopers say the driver of the other car, an Iowa City woman, had her life saved by her seatbelt, though she was injured.
