The driver of a speeding car that struck another vehicle Monday afternoon in Red Oak, was later cited for Operating a motor vehicle without a driver’s license. According to Red Oak Police, the accident happened at around 3:38-p.m. at the corner of 5th and Elm Streets in Red Oak.

An investigation determined a 1996 Plymouth Neon driven by Wilmer Altuzar Ramos, of Red Oak, was traveling east on Elm Street and collided with a southbound 2004 Pontiac Grand Am, driven by Sheryl Lynne Franzen, of Red Oak. Franzen told officers the other vehicle had been speeding through the intersection when it hit her car.

After the collision, the Neon spun around and was facing westbound. Witnesses told police they saw four Hispanic males in the vehicle. At least two of them switched seats and a new driver took control before the vehicle took off. The car was later located at 108 W. Walnut Street.

The persons in the vehicle admitted to police they had switched drivers after the accident. Both of the individuals received citations for Driving without a license. Damage from the crash amounted to more than $11,000.  No injuries were reported.
