(In an update to our story last night) A collision between a car and a pickup truck  Wednesday night southwest of Lyman resulted in two Cass County men being transported to the Cass County Memorial Hospital. According to Sheriff’s Deputy Ryan Johnson, 23-year old Tyler Scott Mikkelsen, of Atlantic, and 26-year old Marcus Moore, of Griswold, suffered minor injuries during the crash that happened on 620th Street, just north of Victoria Road.

Johnson says 18-year old Graham Francis Howell, of Griswold, was driving a 2003 Volvo southbound on 620^th Street and cresting a hill, when his car collided with a 1992 GMC pickup driven by Mikkelsen, who was attempting to turn left in a private driveway off of northbound 620th. The impact happened at around 7:35-p.m, just south of the private drive.

Marcus Moore, a passenger in Mikkelsen’s pickup, was trapped in the vehicle and had to be freed by mechanical means. He was transported by ground ambulance to CCMH, while Mikkelsen was taken to the hospital by private vehicle. Johnson says Howell was not hurt in the crash. No citations were issued.

Griswold Fire and Rescue, Grant 1st Responders and Medivac Ambulance assisted Sheriff’s Deputies at the scene.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Warehouses, distribution and grocery stores are overflowing with some food staples, such as milk, eggs and frozen fruits and vegetables. It’s the result of increased production and decreased exports. Take dairy, for example. With the most milk ever produced in the U.S. _ about 24.65 billion gallons _ that means there are record amounts of butter and cheese. The glut of food means lower prices for consumers.
