In an update to our report Sunday morning, the Page County Sheriff’s Office says a Blanchard man has died as the result of injuries he suffered during a fishing accident Saturday afternoon. 69-year old Joseph Bruce Hines had gone to a bridge just west of Blanchard on 320th Street to fish Tarkio Creek, when he slipped on the edge of the bank and suffered life-threatening injuries before he fell into the water. The accident happened at around 3-p.m., Saturday. Witnesses to the accident did not have a phone at the scene and went back to a residence in Blanchard to call for assistance.
Page County Deputies, Coin Fire and Rescue, Clarinda Rescue, and Shenandoah Rescue responded to the scene. Hines was transported to Shenandoah Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Officials with the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce have partnered with the Cass County Health System, to sponsor the Annual Angel(s) of Christmas. The Angel of Christmas is a tradition in Atlantic recognizing and thanking area residents who symbolize the true meaning of the season. Angels exemplify the true holiday spirit all year long – putting others first, spreading generosity and sharing the holiday spirit with everyone they meet.
In 2016, Sherri Lebeck was named the Angel of Christmas, demonstrating the true meaning of the season by spending her time giving extra care to people who are ill in their homes, doing personal shopping for those who are unable to themselves, bringing food to those who need it and visiting and comforting widow and widowers.
Nominate the Christmas Angel you know to the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce by November 29th at noon. This year’s angel will be announced at the Holiday Concert, sponsored by Bonnesen’s Five & Ten Store, on December 4th at 3pm. Nominate by submitting a nomination form to the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce. Nomination forms are available at the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce or online at christmasinatlantic.com.

In an update to our earlier reports, the Iowa State Patrol says a young man from Taylor County died Sunday morning during a crash on Interstate 80 east of Marne, in Cass County. 19-year old Devon Wheeler, of Gravity, died at the scene of the crash that happened at around 7:15-a.m., about a half-mile east of the Marne exit. The driver of the car, 19-year old Benjamin Hill, of Bedford, was flown from the scene by Midwest MedAir to the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. Both men were ejected from the vehicle. Neither man was wearing a seat belt.
Officials say Hill was driving a 2007 Ford Focus eastbound on I-80 when the car drifted onto the north shoulder. Hill overcorrected, causing the car to cross both lanes of I-80 and enter a ditch before rolling over and coming to rest in a harvested corn field.
The Cass County Sheriff’s Office, Atlantic, and Marne Fire and Rescue assisted at the scene.

The Iowa State Patrol has released additional information about a crash that happened Saturday afternoon on Interstate 80, west of Adair. Officials say a 2004 Buick LeSabre driven by 68-year old Linda Weston, of Audubon, was traveling west on I-80 at around 1:30-p.m., when for reasons unknown, the car drifted to right.

The fire was quickly extinguished.
Weston, and her passenger, 96-year old Clarence Pfundheller, of Audubon, who were wearing their seatbelts, were injured. Weston was transported by Anita Rescue to the Cass County Hospital and then by Midwest Medair helicopter to Methodist Hospital in Des Moines.
