No injuries were reported after a vehicle went off the road and struck a sign in Glenwood, Sunday morning. The Glenwood P-D says 27-year old Zane Fourney, of Treynor, was driving a 2003 Chevy Malibu southbound on RedBud Avenue, just north of Marian Street, when he spilled coffee onto his lap.
When Fourney took his eyes off the road, his car crossed the center line and hit the median before hitting a City of Glenwood Street sign. The collision caused significant damage to the undercarriage of the vehicle, which was driven to the 100 block of Linn Street before it stopped running. Damage from the mishap amounted to $2,100. No citations were issued.
The Glenwood P-D reports also, the arrest on Thanksgiving Day of 32-year old Matthew West, of Glenwood, for allegedly violating a Protection Order. His bond was set at $300. And, on Friday, 19-year old David Barrett, of Glenwood, was warrested for Domestic Abuse Assault and Possession of a Controlled Substance. His bond was set at $1,000.
