Red Oak accident under investigation

News

October 14th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

No injuries were reported following a collision between two vehicles in Red Oak Monday, but the accident remains under investigation. Authorities say a 2014 Buick Encore driven by 51-year old Christina Vestal, of Emerson, was stopped at the intersection of North 3rd and East Washington Streets at around 5-p.m. Monday, and when it pulled away from the intersection, was struck by an eastbound 2005 Chevy pickup driven by 58-year old William Ehlers, of Red Oak.

Vestal told police she didn’t see Ehlers’ pickup approaching because of an obstruction created by motor vehicles parked along the north side of east Washington Street, and the position of a power pole. Damage from the crash amounted to $5,600.

No citations were issued, pending completion of the accident investigation.

Attempted murder charge against Iowa man dropped

News

October 14th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) – An attempted murder charge against an Iowa man has been dropped after witnesses could not identify a shooter. The Daily Nonpareil reports the Pottawattamie County Attorney’s Office dismissed the attempted murder and intimidation with a dangerous weapon charges against 21-year-old Vaughn White. He is still charged with a felony count of escaping custody.

He was arrested in July in connection to a June shooting of a 16-year-old girl. Police say White briefly escaped from officers while handcuffed during his arrest. The county attorney’s office says neither the girl nor a witness could identify a suspect during a deposition.

White is being held at the Pottawattamie County Jail on $5,000 bond.
