The Mills County Sheriff’s Office reports three arrests and one, injury-accident. Officials say 49-year old Kevin Michael Steadman, of Glenwood, was arrested Saturday afternoon, for Domestic Abuse Assault, and 52-year old Scotty Ray Glassco, of Columbus, NE., was arrested at around 3:50-a.m. Saturday, for being a Fugitive from Justice, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. On Oct. 25th, 27-year old Zackery David Mount-Gallet, of Carter Lake, was arrested for Domestic Abuse Assault, and on a warrant out of Pottawattamie County.

Authorities say also, an accident at around 7-p.m. Sunday resulted in 66-year old Kenneth Mihills, of Alvin, TX, being transported to the hospital by Glenwood Rescue. The Mills County Sheriff’s Office says a 2014 Nissan driven by Mihills was traveling south on Levi Road and going up the hill south of Kane. A 2000 Ford owned by 85-year old George Weber, of Glenwood, was parked in the middle of the road at the crest of the hill, with the driver’s door open and headlights on. Weber was standing outside his vehicle wearing only brown coveralls and no reflective clothing.

Officials say he was trying to slow or stop traffic, because just over the hill they were moving a 2008 Peterbilt semi tractor-trailer out of a field entrance. Mihills noticed at the last minute Weber was stopped on the road. He swerved to miss the Ford, but hit the driver’s side door. By the time he realized what happened, Mihills was unable to stop for the semi, and ran into the trailer.
