A crash on Interstate 80 Thursday morning in Council Bluffs resulted in minor injuries to a woman, but she did not require transport to the hospital. According to a Bluffs Police report, 24-year old Taylor Wees, of Council Bluffs, was traveling west on I-80 near the southbound I-29 split, when traffic slowed in front of her. Wees was unable to slow down in-time and swerved to avoid hitting another vehicle, but in the process hit a guard rail.

Wees’ 2007 Mazda spun sideways before coming to rest across the westbound lanes of traffic. The wreck brought traffic to a dead stop for about 40-minutes, while the scene was investigated and cleaned-up. No citations were issued. Damage to the Wees’ car was estimated at $8,000. Damage to the guardrail was also estimated to be several thousand dollars.
