When Afoakwah tried to change lanes he lost control due to the road conditions. He then entered the west ditch, rolled 1 time coming to rest on the wheels. Afoakwah’s vehicle, a 2006 Ford Escape, is listed as totaled. No citations were issues. Plymouth County was assisted by Hinton Police and the Iowa State Patrol.
