The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office reports the arrest Wednesday afternoon of a Red Oak woman on two bench warrants.  At 3:50pm deputies arrested 26-year-old Mildred Helenora Douglas of Red Oak.  One warrant was out of Cass County for Driving While Revoked and the second was out of Pottawattamie County for Failure to Appear on OWI Charge.  Both bonds were $2,000 and Douglas was turned over to Cass County.

The Page County Sheriff’s Office says one person was transported to the hospital following an accident this (Wednesday) morning. The crash took place at around 8:05-a.m. at 170th Street and E Avenue, or about two miles south and east of Essex.

Essex Fire and Rescue was called to the scene and extricated 33-year old Susan Elizabeth Moore, of Villisca, from the 2012 Chevy Malibu she was driving. Moore was   then transported to Shenandoah Memorial Hospital by Essex Rescue for treatment of  undisclosed injuries. The driver of the other vehicle, 50-year old Melissia May Long, of rural Shenandoah, and her passenger, were checked for injuries but were found to be okay.

An investigation into the accident determined Long was driving a 2007 Jeep Liberty north on E Avenue from the stop sign, crossing 170th. Long said that she didn’t see the 2012 Chevy Malibu that Moore was operating westbound on 170th east of the intersection with E Avenue. Moore saw the Long vehicle start from the stop sign and continue into the intersection. She started to brake, but Long’s SUV hit the car on the driver’s side front door. The collision caused Moore’s car to spin counter clockwise into the north ditch, where it hit and destroyed a county road sign post. The car came to rest in the north ditch, west of the intersection. Long’s SUV also spun counter clockwise and came to rest in the eastbound lane of 170th just west of the intersection.

Deputies cited Long for Failure to have insurance and Failure to yield upon entering through Highway.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) – A Sergeant Bluff man has been given 60 days in jail for head-butting his 13-year-old son. Forty-eight-year-old Bradley Graff also was ordered Tuesday to pay $410 in restitution. The Sioux City Journal reports that Graff pleaded guilty to child endangerment. He pleaded guilty in a separate case to failing to register as a sex offender. He was given a suspended five-year sentence and two years’ probation.

Court documents say the head-butting occurred while Graff was practicing wrestling with his 11- and 13-year-old sons at his business, Wall of Fame. The documents say the older boy asked to stop practicing, but Graff threw him onto a mat several times and head-butted him. The documents also say Graff stomped his son’s head onto the mat, giving the boy a bloody nose.
