The Union County Sheriff’s Office reports the driver of a 1998 GMC pickup suffered suspected minor/non-incapacitating injuries during a single-vehicle accident at around 8:30-a.m., Monday. 15-year old Rachel Ann Boyer, of Kent, was traveling south on the High and Dry Road, when a deer ran out in front of her. Boyer, who was wearing her seat belt, swerved to miss the animal, and in the process lost control of the vehicle. The pickup rolled into the west ditch, and sustained $5,000 damage. The teen was transported by private vehicle to the hospital in Creston, to be checked-out.

And, Sheriff’s officials say a man from Afton, reported on Monday morning, that someone placed fraudulent charges on his checking account. The incident happened sometime last Saturday.

June 20th, 2018 by admin

Officials with the City of Audubon have issued a Boil Water Advisory until further notice for the community. A water main break this morning has dropped water pressure levels resulting in the need for a Boil order to be put into place.

All water used for consumption should be boiled before use or you can choose to use bottled water. Showering and bathing is okay during a boil advisory but you need to be careful not to ingest water while doing so.

City of Audubon Officials will notify the public when the advisory has been lifted.
