Police in Harlan say one person was arrested Sunday, following a disturbance in the 2300 block of 7th Street. Officials say 23-year old Crystal Oliver, of Harlan, was taken into custody on charges of Public Intoxication and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
The H-PD also investigated two, non-injury accidents recently. On Saturday, vehicles driven by Thomas Sondag II, and Melanie Olesen, both of Harlan, collided at 12th and Baldwin Streets, when Sondag’s 1999 Saturn pulled out in front of Olesen’s 2008 Chevrolet. Damage from the collision amounted to $4,000. Sondag was cited for Failure to Obey a Stop Sign.
The other accident happened in the 1000 block of Chatburn Avenue, on Feb. 10th. Officials say vehicles driven by Maura Goaley, of Omaha, and Dennis C. Petersen, of Harlan, collided when Goaley was attempting to turn from the Casey’s east driveway onto Chatburn Avenue. An uninvolved delivery truck was stopping to turn north into the Casey’s parking lot. As it was doing so, a 1994 Plymouth driven by Petersen went around the truck and proceeded west. Goaley didn’t see Petersen’s car because the truck obstructed her view. When she pulled out onto Chatburn to head east, her 2007 Chrysler was hit on the passenger side door by the Petersen vehicle. Damage from the crash amounted to $6,000. No citations were issued.
