The Creston Police Department released details of a Thursday evening accident in Creston. Officers were called to the scene of a two-vehicle accident at 5:14pm Thursday at the intersection of Highway 34 and Elm Street in Creston.
After investigation it was determined that a 2007 Toyota Rav4 driven by 27-year-old Kimberly Caudle of Creston was westbound on Highway 34 while a 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix driven by 22-year-old Caitlyn Cox of Creston was southbound on Elm Street when both came to the intersection stop signs. Cox observed a truck turning from the inside lane on Highway 34 and thought she was okay to turn left onto Highway 34. Caudle was sitting in the inside lane and began traveling west on Highway 34 and struck Cox’s turning vehicle on the rear driver’s side. Caudle had an airbag deploy and was taken to Greater Regional Medical Center to check out possible injuries. Cox was uninjured in the accident.
No citations were issued and the vehicles suffered an estimated $9,000 total damage.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Rougned Odor homered and Cole Hamels pitched 7 2/3 innings as the Texas Rangers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 1-0 on Friday night.
Hamels (7-1) allowed three hits while striking out six and walking three. He lowered his road ERA to 1.64 this season and turned in his fourth consecutive quality start.
Hamels scattered five baserunners and allowed only one to reach second.
Odor homered on the first pitch he saw in the fifth, hitting it 433 feet to straightaway center. It was Odor’s third homer in as many games and the 19th for the Rangers in their last eight games.
Sam Dyson picked up his 12th save.
The Rangers have won four straight, improving to an AL-best 43-25. Texas improved to 4-0 all-time at Busch Stadium in the regular season and is a win away from winning a franchise-record eighth consecutive series.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — State officials say they have used Iowa’s safe haven law to take custody of a newborn baby whose mother turned over care of the girl to a hospital. The Department of Human Services announced Friday the infant was given to an Iowa hospital June 7 and then released to the custody of the state agency.
It’s the 26th time the law has been used to turn over care of an infant since it was approved following a 2001 case, in which a teenage mother in eastern Iowa killed her home-delivered newborn. The state didn’t specify the city where the baby was given to the hospital. Iowa law allows parents to hand over custody of babies up to 14 days old without fear of prosecution.
