The Iowa State Patrol says one woman was killed, another hurt, in a two-vehicle accident on Highway 3 in Humboldt County late Wednesday afternoon.

Reportedly an eastbound 2019 Nissan Kicks SUV operated by 56-year-old Brenda Knight of Fort Dodge for unknown reasons crossed the roadway striking a westbound 2006 Hummer HU3 driven by 59-year-old Becky Rice of Pocahontas.

Both drivers were transported to the Humboldt County Memorial Hospital. Knight died of her injuries upon arrival. The accident remains under investigation.
