Two accidents took place Monday, in Atlantic, with only minor injuries reported. The Police Department says just after 7:20-a.m., vehicles driven by Merle Pope, of Harlan, and Patsy Wood, of Adair, collided at 7th and Ash Streets, when Pope failed to stop at the traffic lights and ran into the Wood vehicle, which was proceeding into the intersection from the west side entrance to Wal-Mart. Damage from the impact amounted to $4,000. Wood said she bumped her head, but refused medical treatment. Police cited Pope for Failure to Obey a Traffic Control Device.

And, at around 5:30-p.m. Monday, vehicles driven by Kay Williams, of Marne, and Linda Fay, of Lewis, collided at the entrance to the Subway store on 7th Street. Both vehicles were heading eastbound when a non-contact vehicle in front of Williams’ car stopped. Williams also stopped, but Fay couldn’t stop in-time, and rear-ended the Williams vehicle, causing a total of $7,500 damage. No injuries were reported. Fay was cited for Following too Close.
