(KLZA)-- An Atchison County, Missouri crash that occurred shortly before 7:30 Sunday morning, killing three people and injuring three others allegedly occurred following a kidnapping in Nebraska, followed by a pursuit starting in Iowa and ending in a deadly crash.

KETV in Omaha reports that Fremont County, Iowa deputies responded to a report shortly after 6 a.m. Sunday of a woman at the hospital in Hamburg, Iowa, telling investigators that a man she knew had kidnapped her and her 1-year-old son in Nebraska.

She said the man had run over her and later dropped her off at the hospital in Hamburg before fleeing with the child in a Kia Sorento. The woman also reported the man was suicidal and homicidal.

Iowa troopers attempted to box in the suspect but he was able to get away and continued to flee, getting onto Interstate 29 headed south in the northbound lanes.

Deputies attempted to intercept the pursuit near Hamburg traveling north on I-29. They found the Kia driven by a 29-year-old man from Bellevue, Nebraska, traveling south in the northbound lane at a high rate of speed, followed by Iowa State troopers.

The driver attempted to hit the Fremont County deputies. One deputy pursued the suspect in the northbound lanes with emergency lights activated while other pursuit continued in the southbound lanes.

Iowa troopers stopped pursuit at the Missouri State line as Missouri authorities were notified.

The Kia collided with a 2013 Ford Foucs which was northbound in the left lane while passing a semi-truck. The semi swerved in an attempt to avoid the crash but hit the Fremont County, Iowa deputy who was still in pursuit in the northbound lanes.

The Kia came to rest on the northbound Nishnabotna River Bridge and caught on fire. The driver of the Kia was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Fremont County Deputy was able to rescue the 1-year-old child who had been kidnapped from the burning vehicle. The child was flown to a hospital in Omaha with non-life-threatening injuries.

The driver of the Ford Focus left the road and the car rolled over, ejecting an 18-yer-old woman from the vehicle. The woman and the driver, an 18-year-old male also died at the scene of the wreck. Another passenger in the car survived with serious injures. All three were from Kearney, Missouri.

The Fremont County Deputy who was hit by the semitrailer was treated and released from the Grape Community Hospital in Hamburg.

The names of those involved in the crash have not been released.

The crash is under investigation by the Missouri Highway Patrol.
