(Glenwood, Iowa) – A woman from Glenwood was arrested Sunday, for Driving While Under Suspension. Authorities say 47-year-old Amy Hunter was being held in the Mills County Jail on a $300 bond.

Glenwood Police report one person suffered from possible/unknown injuries, following a collision Friday evening at the intersection of N. Locust and Sharp Streets. The accident happened at around 5:10-p.m., as a 2018 KIA driven by 39-year-old Amy Joanna Leonard, of Glenwood, was stopped at the controlled intersection, waiting for the stoplight to change. Leonard said she felt a car hit them from behind. In speaking with the driver of the other vehicle, a 2007 Lincoln MKZ, authorities say 66-year-old Deborah Rae Wilcoxsen, of Glenwood, told officers that her foot slipped-off the pedal, and that she couldn’t regain control in-time.

Amy Leonard complained of pain following the collision, but was not transported to the hospital. Both vehicles were able to drive away from the scene. The KIA sustained about $500 damage. No citations were issued, but Police noted Wilcoxsen was following too close.
