A woman from Page County was injured during a single-vehicle accident Wednesday afternoon. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office reports 20-year old Jasmine M. Adams, of Clarinda, was driving a 2008 Chevy Impala eastbound on 260th Street, east of Villisca, when her car lost traction as it was rounding a curve. The vehicle hit a road sign and entered the south ditch before running through a field fence and coming to rest in the ditch. The accident happened at around 1:37-p.m.

Authorities say Adams was transported by Red Oak Rescue to the Clarinda Regional Hospital, for treatment of minor injuries. Damage from the accident amounted to $5,750 ($5,000 to the car, $250 for the road sign & $500 for the fence). No citations were issued. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office was assisted at the scene by Villisca Fire and Red Oak Rescue.
