"Bachelor" alum Chris Soules was arrested in Iowa on Monday, April 24, following a fatal car crash, Us Weekly can confirm.

The Buchanan County Sheriff's Office says that a pickup rear-ended a tractor trailer near Aurora and the vehicles landed in a ditch. The season 19 Bachelor, 35, reportedly left the scene and was booked in the last 24 hours.

TMZ reports that one person was pronounced dead at a local hospital and Soules received medical attention following the incident.

The Arlington, Iowa, native starred in the ABC franchise in 2015. He popped the question to fertility nurse Whitney Bischoff, but the couple called off their engagement in May 2015, two months after the season finale. He competed on season 20 of "Dancing With the Stars" with pro partner Witney Carson that same year.
