(Cass County, Iowa) – In an update to our earlier post and report, the Cass County Sheriff’s Office today (Tuesday), said a man from Adair suffered from apparent minor injuries, when the dump truck he was operating rolled over Monday afternoon, near Anita. The accident happened at around 4:41-p.m. in the area of 76oth and Fairview Road.

An investigation determined a 2019 Volvo dump truck operated by Walter Starkey, of Adair, was traveling west on Fairview Road, when the vehicle got to close to the edge of the road, and slid down a ditch before rolling onto its side in an adjacent property. Starkey was alert and conscious following the accident. He was taken to a local hospital to be checked-out and treated as necessary.
