An icy road was to blame for an accident Wednesday afternoon, in Union County. Sheriff’s officials say 42-year old Laura Ditzler, of Shannon City, was traveling south on Pole Road near the intersection with 185th Street, when her 2004 Chevy SUV went out of control and slid through the intersection. The vehicle entered a ditch and hit a fence before coming to rest in a field. Damage to the SUV amounted to $2,000, while the farm fence sustained about $250 damage. No injuries were reported.
