3 injured in Audubon County crash

News

May 20th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

Three people were transported to the Audubon County hospital following a two-vehicle crash late Saturday morning, about three-miles northwest of Audubon. Sheriff’s officials say vehicles driven by 18-year old Darek Louis Muhlbauer, and 52-year old Sarah Gervase Christensen, both of Audubon, collided at around 11:15-a.m. near the intersection of 170th Street and Goldfinch Avenue.

As the vehicles approached the intersection, Christensen failed to stop. Her eastbound 2002 Ford Taurus struck the side of Muhlbauer’s 2004 Chevy Avalanche, causing the SUV pickup to slide into the northeast ditch. The vehicle hit a stop sign and power pole before coming to rest.

Christensen was transported to the hospital by Audubon Fire and Rescue. Muhlbauer, and a passenger in his vehicle, 18-year old Waylen Manning Lemke, of Fontanelle, were transported to the same facility by private vehicle. Damage from the crash amounted to $16,000. Officials say Christensen was cited for Failure to obey a stop sign.

A 12-year old boy from Treynor suffered what were described as “non life-threatening” injuries when the bicycle he was riding was struck by a car Sunday morning, in Treynor. Pottawattamie County Sheriff Jeff Danker told KJAN News the accident happened at around 10:30-a.m. at the intersection of Horn Avenue and north Eyberg. Danker says David Burhenne was crossing north Eyberg and didn’t see a northbound Chrysler Sebring driven by Dana Putnam, of rural McClelland.

Burhenne suffered a broken ankle and minor facial lacerations during the collision. Danker says Putnam stopped to render aid to the boy prior to his being transported to the University of Nebraska Medical Center, by Treynor Rescue. No citations were issued.
