Fremont County Sheriff Kevin Aistrope released details on a myriad of accidents on Wednesday during icy road conditions.

At approximately 7:15 p.m. the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office received multiple calls for a multi-vehicle accident near the Missouri River bridge on Hwy 2, east of Nebraska City.

A 1996 Chevy 1500 was westbound on Hwy 2 on the levee Bridge when it lost control on ice and struck the north concrete barrier, coming to rest facing east in the westbound right lane. The vehicle was then struck by a white 2005 Buick Park Avenue. A westbound semi driver took evasive action and attempted to avoid the initial accident, stuck the Buick, and then overturned blocking both westbound lanes of travel.

A black 2019 Dodge Journey Stopped east of the initial pickup accident to assist with traffic control and was struck by a black 2022 Chevy Malibu.

The two occupants of the Chevy 1500 were transported to the hospital with possible injuries and one occupant of the Buick Park Avenue was transported as well. No other injuries were reported.

Westbound Hwy 2 traffic was halted until approximately 1:00 a.m.

The Sidney Fire and Rescue, Percival Fire and Rescue, Hamburg Fire and Rescue, Nebraska City Fire and Rescue, Iowa State Patrol, Otoe County Sheriff’s Office, Nebraska State Patrol, the Nebraska City Police Department, and the Iowa Department of Transportation assisted the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office with the call.

At approximately 7:57 p.m. four other traffic accidents occurred between the 8 and 10-mile marker northbound Interstate 29. One patient was transported to the hospital from a rollover accident at the 8-mile marker. A male was also transported from Sapp Brothers by rescue with a possible cardiac event, not related to the accidents.
