Cherokee, IA (KICD)– A Northwest Iowa man charged with leaving the scene of a fatality crash late last year has pled not guilty.

29-year-old Casey Herwig entered the written plea last week to one count of knowingly leaving the scene of a crash resulting in death in connection to an incident in December in which a bicyclist was hit and killed in Cherokee by what has been determined to be Herwig’s pickup.

Online court records show Herwig will go in front of a jury in September.
