Chris Soules telephoned emergency services after he was involved in a fatal accident.
The Bachelor star was arrested in the early hours of Tuesday morning for allegedly fleeing the scene of an accident where death occurred after rear-ending his pickup truck into a tractor, sending both vehicles into a ditch.
The tractor driver, who has been identified as Kenneth Mosher, was taken to hospital where he died.
The 911 call made by Chris reveals that other people were at the scene attempting to help the victim, including performing CPR.
The reality star was clearly distraught on the phone, identifying himself and confirming he rear-ended the tractor.
Chris said the victim was unconscious but he had a pulse, and also told the operator that he was bleeding from his mouth.

He allegedly left the scene after the 911 call and was arrested a few hours later, appearing in court on Tuesday.
Chris has since deleted his Instagram account, and his representative said in a statement: “Chris Soules was involved in an accident Monday evening (April 24) in a rural part of Iowa near his home.
“He was devastated to learn that Kenneth Mosher, the other person in the accident, passed away. His thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Mosher’s family.”
