No injuries were reported following a rollover accident this (Friday) morning, in Pottawattamie County. The Iowa State Patrol says 46-year old Mark Darren Wilson, of Council Bluffs, was driving a 2001 Chevy Tahoe SUV north, down a hill on Wabash Avenue, when he was passed on the left by another vehicle.
Wilson was startled, steered to the right and then over-corrected. His actions caused the SUV to cross the center line of road before it entered the left ditch. Wilson over-corrected to the right again, which resulted in the vehicle catching the edge of the road and rolling onto its top.
The truck slid on its top down the roadway before finally coming to rest in the southbound lane of Wabash Avenue. Neither Wilson, nor his two passengers in the SUV were injured in the crash, which happened at around 12:20-a.m., and caused $5,000 damage.
The Patrol says Wilson was cited for Failure to Maintain Control.

Beginning the week of June 13th, construction will begin on the 2011 PCC (Portland Cement Concrete) Paving and Storm Sewer Improvement project within the City of Atlantic. The contractor intends to begin on Birch Street between 7th Street and 14th Street.
Existing roadway surfacing will be removed, so therefore, there will be limited and restricted
access to residences. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Snyder and Associates’ Engineer Dave Sturm at 243-6505.
The Cass County Sheriff’s office reports one person was taken into custody Wednesday on a theft charge. 27-year old Sean Duane Elston, of Red Oak, was taken into custody on a Magistrate’s Warrant for Theft 5th Degree.
Elston was brought to the Cass County Jail where he pled guilty, and was released later that day.
DES MOINES – Gov. Branstad’s office today is releasing the following information in conjunction with Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management:
Citizens in Western Iowa counties may access several resources for answers to questions regarding possible widespread flooding in the Missouri River valley.
Iowa Concern Hotline
Citizens in the affected areas may call the Iowa Concern Hotline at 1-800-447-1985. When flooding is a concern in the state, Iowa State University Extension’s Iowa Concern hotline is available for those who need assistance. The Iowa Concern Hotline is available 24 hours a day. All calls are free and confidential, and the operators are willing to assist wherever possible.
2-1-1
In addition, residents may call 2-1-1 with questions or concerns about the flooding and steps they should take. 2-1-1 is an easy to remember telephone number that connects callers to information about critical health and human services available in their community:
* Basic human needs resource: food banks, clothing, shelters, rent assistance, utility assistance.
* Support for older Americans and persons with special needs: home health care, adult day care, congregate meals, Meals on Wheels, respite care, transportation, and homemaker services.
* Volunteer opportunities and donations.
Donations and Volunteering
Donations of “stuff” (clothing, miscellaneous food items, household goods, etc.) are NOT needed at this time. Cash is best; it doesn’t need to be sorted, stored or distributed, and cash allows the receiving voluntary agency to direct the donation to the needs that most urgently need addressing. To donate cash, visit www.aidmatrixnetwork.org/CashDonations/Default2.aspx?ST=Iowa<http://www.aidmatrixnetwork.org/CashDonations/Default2.aspx?ST=Iowa>
Those wishing to volunteer in the flood fight may sign up to do so at www.volunteeriowa.org<http://www.volunteeriowa.org>.
