STRAWBERRY POINT - An Arlington man is dead following a one-vehicle rollover accident in Clayton County Sunday morning
Sheriff's officials said Richard Deshaw, 23, of Arlington, was pronounced dead at the scene after his car went off the road on Iowa Highway 3 south of Strawberry Point at about 6:44 a.m. Sunday. A passenger, Marjorie Kloserman, 19, of Strawberry Point was transported to Manchester Hospital and airlifted to University Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City.
