Police: Speed A Factor In Crash That Killed Toddler

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Authorities have identified the toddler killed in a four-vehicle crash in Moorhead.

Two-year-old Zaiden David Engen was hospitalized following the crash and died from his injuries, according to the Moorhead Police Department.

Zaiden and his parents, 24-year-old Logan William Ness and 22-year-old Alyse Ann Engen, were rear-ended by a Ford F-150 pickup truck driven by 42-year-old Jeremy James Sagvold.

After the initial crash, both vehicles continued moving and hit two other vehicles.

Zaiden was in a car seat, police said.

Sagvold has been cooperative with police and did not show signs of impairment. Speed was a factor, police said, and once the investigation is complete, the Clay County Attorney's Office will decide whether Sagvold will face criminal charges.
