(Creston, Iowa) – A man from Creston was injured during a collision just north of Creston, Monday afternoon. The Iowa State Patrol says a 2005 Hyundai Sonata, driven by 48-year-old Phillip Ronald Williams, Jr., of Creston, was traveling south on Union County Road P-33 south of 110th Street, at around 1-p.m., at the same time a 2009 Chevy Impala driven by 19-year-old Holton Alan McCutchan, of Prescott, was traveling northbound.

When the Chevy went on to the shoulder of the road, McCutchan over-corrected, sending the car into the path of Williams’ car. After the vehicles collided, the Hyundai rolled-over and came to rest on its wheels in the west ditch. The Chevy also ended-up in the west ditch, coming to rest on its wheels.
