from Des Moines News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

An Iowa man, Zachary Berger, faces life in prison after being indicted on eight charges—including felony vehicular homicide and manslaughter—following a Fourth of July ATV crash in South Dakota that killed a 9-year-old girl and injured a 16-year-old boy. Allegations of habitual offender status could drastically increase his potential sentence, and he’s currently held on a $50,000 bond with his next court date set for July 28. The crash occurred on Spring Creek Drive near Pierre, and charges also include DUI and seatbelt violations. This tragedy underscores the deadly consequences of reckless vehicle operation.
