In an update to our earlier reports, the Cass County Sheriff’s Office today (Monday), released the names of the drivers who were injured during a crash Sunday afternoon, in Marne. Authorities say 78-year old Keith Reagels, of Marne, and 40-year old Alan Vanaernam, of Atlantic, were injured when a 2014 Town and Country Van driven by Reagels, failed to yield while attempting to turn left onto Marne Road from Washington Street, and was struck by a westbound 2014 semi, driven by Vanaernam.
After the semi struck the van on the driver’s side, the van spun into the southwest ditch. The accident happened at around 2:35-p.m. Walnut Rescue and Medivac Ambulance transported the drivers to the Cass County Memorial Hospital. Both vehicles were said to be a total loss.
