(Shenandoah, Iowa) – A man from Nebraska was transported to the Shenandoah Memorial Hospital Tuesday afternoon, following a single-vehicle accident about two miles east of Shenandoah. The Page County Sheriff’s Office reports the driver of a 2016 Nissan Rogue, 35-year-old William R. Dugan, of Elkhorn, NE., was checked-out and treated for unknown/possible injuries.

The accident happened at around 4:14-p.m., near the intersection of 190^th Street and C Avenue. Authorities say Dugan was traveling east on 190^th Street approximately ¼ mile west of the intersection with C Avenue, when his vehicle’s passenger’s side tires dropped off the traveled portion of the road, causing the vehicle to be pulled into the south ditch. The side airbags in the vehicle deployed even though the vehicle didn’t roll or come in contact with anything in the ditch. Dugan then drove in the ditch where the vehicle came to rest.

No citations were issued. The Page County Sheriff’s Office was assisted at the scene by the Shenandoah Ambulance service, the Shenandoah Fire Department, and the Shenandoah Police Department.
