DUBUQUE, Iowa (AP) - A Dubuque man was arrested Tuesday in connection with a car crash in November that killed a pregnant woman and injured a child.
The Dubuque County Sheriff’s Office said John E. Hoffman, 69, was charged with homicide by vehicle-operating under the influence, nonconsensual termination of a pregnancy and serious injury by vehicle.
The charges stem from a Nov. 9 crash on Highway 52 southeast of Key West that killed Hannah Ruggeberg, 20, and injured a 3-year-old child. Ruggeberg was pregnant at the time of the crash.
Hoffman is being held on a $250,000 cash bond.
