This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Old Westbury chapter.

Chris Soules was Bachelor Nation’s all-time favorite and was even know as Prince Farming. Soules was arrested in Iowa after he allegedly crashing into a car leaving someone dead. According to The New York Times, on Monday, around 8:20 p.m, the Buchanan County Sheriff’s Office got a report of an accident near the northeastern city of Aurora, which is near Soules’s farm. Soules was driving a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado when he rear-ended a John Deere tractor, causing it to fall into a ditch. Kenneth Eugene Mosher the man in the tracor died later that night in the hospital. 

According to the sheriff’s office, Soules car fell into a different ditch but he left the scene before the police arrived. Leaving a the scene of a fatal accident is a felony, therefore Soules was picked up from his home to the Buchanan County Jail. 

After posting a $10,000 bail, Soules was released. No additional information on this investigation will be released anytime soon, the authorities said. Ugh!
