Amended trial documents show that Logan Christensen, 39, is charged with vehicular homicide and serious injury by motor vehicle.

Prosecutors say Christensen ran a stop sign at the intersection of Union Avenue and 110th Street on Nov. 27, 2023, which resulted in the death of 13-year-old Kyle Hilbert and serious injuries to Sara Sanga, Hilbert’s mother.

According to court documents, Sanga was driving a Toyota Camry northbound on Union Avenue in Webster County. Hilbert was sitting in the passenger seat as they made their way back to their home in Hardy following a doctor’s appointment in Fort Dodge. Christensen was traveling westbound on 110th Street in a Ram pickup when he failed to stop at a stop sign, hitting Sanga’s Toyota in the front passenger area and pushing it into the ditch, where the vehicle struck a power pole. Christensen’s vehicle again hit Sanga’s car causing it to roll onto its hood where it came to rest.

Hilbert was pronounced dead at the scene. Sanga was airlifted to a Des Moines hospital with a head injury, broken ankle, and broken ribs.

Christensen told law enforcement at the scene that he was driving the truck and stated that prior to getting behind the wheel he had consumed alcohol: ‘two captains and cokes’.

According to court records, Christensen’s blood test results came back positive for cocaine and THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, and indicated a blood alcohol content of .041. A blood alcohol content of .08 is presumed intoxicated under Iowa law.

Closing arguments in the case were made late Thursday afternoon. A Webster County jury will deliberate the case beginning this morning.
