A Cedar Rapids woman was killed Thursday afternoon in a collision with a snowplow truck on Interstate 80 in Iowa County.
According to an Iowa State Patrol crash report, at about 1 p.m., Joyce R. Baumgarten, 64, of Cedar Rapids, was driving on eastbound Interstate 80 near mile marker 213 when her Jeep Cherokee struck a slow-moving Iowa Department of Transportation snowplow truck that was on the left shoulder conducting a maintenance project.
Baumgarten was killed in the crash. The snowplow truck driver, identified as 52-year-old David Dellamuth of Williamsburg, was taken to a Marengo hospital for injuries.
Two other vehicles were involved in the crash — a Hyundai Sonata and a Ford Edge. The accident report did not indicate that any drivers or passengers in those vehicles were injured.
