Sheriff’s officials in Mills County say one person was injured during a single-vehicle accident Tuesday afternoon, about 4 miles northwest of Emerson. Authorities say Ida Dixon, of Malvern,was transported to the Montgomery County Hospital by Red Oak Rescue, after the 2008 Hyundai she was driving westbound on Highway 34, crossed the eastbound lane of traffic and entered the south road ditch, striking the embankment.

The car came to a rest in the south road ditch. Officials say a non-contact vehicle owned by Eva Hall sustained collateral damage from gravel flying off the shoulder of the road and hitting her vehicle. The accident happened at around 1:30-p.m.
