By Scott Sanborn

BLAIRSTOWN (AP) - An eastern Iowa man is dead after being
pinned by a truck to a farm building.

The Benton County sheriff's office says 83-year-old Henry Siek
of rural Blairstown was unhooking a trailer from a truck on Tuesday
when the truck rolled forward.

Authorities say he tried to get into the cab, but was pinned
between the truck and the door frame of the building.
