In an update to our earlier reports, the Iowa State Patrol reports an Ames woman was cited following an investigation into a rollover accident near Menlo, Sunday morning. 22-year old Rashmi Kuntala was cited for Failure to Maintain control.

Authorities say Kuntala was driving a Ford Fusion on Interstate 80 westbound in the left lane, a little after 9-a.m., when she noticed she was going too fast. The woman tried to brake, but the brakes failed. She then panicked and jerked the steering wheel to the right. The car entered the north ditch and rolled several times before hitting an Iowa Department of Transportation information sign.

Two of the occupants of the vehicle complained of pain, but refused medical treatment.  Stuart Fire and Ambulance, and Menlo Ambulance assisted the State Patrol at the scene.
