Woman runs into accounting building in Creston

News

June 21st, 2016 by admin

The Creston Police Department released details on a crash involving a woman running into a building in Creston Monday.  The crash happened at 12:49pm Monday afternoon as witnesses observed a 2008 Chevy pickup driven by 77-year-old Donna Jean Burgess of Kellerton driving on the wrong side of the road heading north on Sumner Street.  Burgess missed the turn to go to the dentist office and continued north until turning left and running into Ted Willet’s Accounting building.

The vehicle went completely inside the building and medics were called to examine Burgess who suffered minor injuries.

The truck was towed from the scene.  No citations have been issued at this time.  Both the building and the truck sustained an estimated $10,000 damage.
