BERNARD, Iowa (AP) - In a story April 25 about a fatal crash near Bernard, The Associated Press reported the name of one of the victims incorrectly. Her name was Elaine Edwards, not Ellen Edwards.

A corrected version of the story is below:

2 people killed in single-vehicle crash near Bernard

2 people, including toddler, killed in single-vehicle crash near eastern Iowa town of Bernard

BERNARD, Iowa (AP) - Two people, including a 2-year-old boy, have been killed in a single-vehicle rollover crash near Bernard in eastern Iowa.

The Dubuque Telegraph Herald reports (https://bit.ly/1brDTfF ) that that 20-year-old Elaine Edwards and 2-year-old Joseph Edwards, both of Bernard, died in the Friday evening crash.

The Iowa State Patrol report on the crash does not detail the relationship between Edwards and the boy. A call Saturday to the patrol division that handled the crash investigation rang unanswered.

The report says Edwards was driving a pickup northbound on 86th Avenue when she lost control while traveling down a hill. The truck then hit a railing and rolled, landing on its top in a creek.
