The Mills County Sheriff’s Office reports two arrests. Last Friday morning, deputies arrested 41-year-old Timothy Joseph Asche, of Bennington, NE, for OWI/2nd offense. And, on Sept. 30th, 41-year-old Patrick Lynn Darrah, of Omaha, on a warrant for Violation of Probation. He was arrested at the Pottawattamie County Jail. The Sheriff’s Office says also, two people were injured during a collision Friday at the intersection of Highway 34 and Kidd Road.

Authorities say the collision occurred as a 2011 Dodge driven by 46-year-old Amy Graham, of Red Oak, was traveling west on Highway 34, and a 2018 Freightliner truck driven by 26-year-old Kyle Sawatzke, of Elk River, MN, was traveling north on Kidd Road, crossing the Highway 34 westbound lanes. Sawatzke failed to yield the right of way, causing the front of the Dodge to strike the rear of the semi. Graham and a passenger in her vehicle, 63-year-old Donna Graham, of Red Oak, were transported to Mercy Hospital for treatment of unknown/possible injuries.
