SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) - In a story Sept. 3 about a northwestern Iowa man entering a plea in a driving-related death, The Associated Press reported erroneously in a headline that Darrick Toel had pleaded guilty. He pleaded not guilty to charges of vehicular homicide and operating while intoxicated.
A corrected version of the story is below:
NW Iowa man pleads not guilty to charges related to fatal crash
A northwest Iowa man has pleaded not guilty to charges related to the July death of a man injured in a car crash
