The Mills County Sheriff’s Office reports a man from Pottawattamie County was arrested Monday afternoon on a warrant. 35-year old William Joseph Bullock, of Oakland, was taken into custody at around 1-p.m., on the Page County warrant for Theft in the 4th Degree. His bond was set at $1,000. And, a Cass County man escaped injury early Sunday morning, after he swerved to miss a deer. The Mills County Sheriff’s Office says 38-year old Kyle Quist, of Lewis, was traveling east on Barrus Road at around 3:30-a.m., and approaching the intersection with 250th Street, when a deer ran onto the road.

Quist tried to take evasive action, and in the process caused the 2016 Ford he was driving to enter the embankment on the south side of Barrus Road. The vehicle continued over 250th Street and hit a county road sign, damaging the pole. The car came to rest in the east ditch north of 250th. Both front airbags deployed in the car.
