Police in Red Oak report the arrest early this (Wednesday) morning of one person on drug charges. 19-year-old Christian T. Leming, of Red Oak, was taken into custody at around 12:15-a.m., in the 100o block of East Corning Street. Leming faces charges which include Possession of Marijuana and Possession of Prescription Medications. He was being held in the Montgomery County jail on $2,000 bond.
A single-vehicle accident Tuesday morning in Montgomery County caused $5,000 damage to the vehicle, but no one was injured. The Sheriff’s Office says 63-year old Jonette Otte, of Henderson, was traveling east on 150th Street at around 7:30-a.m., when the tires on the passenger side of her 2005 Dodge Stratus left the pavement and entered a very minimal shoulder area. When Otte attempted to prevent the car from entering the ditch, she over-corrected, and went into the south ditch and came to rest in the ditch. Otte was checked at the scene for injuries by Red Oak Fire and Rescue, but did not require transport to the hospital.
No citations were issued.
The driver of a dump truck was flown by helicopter to a hospital in Omaha Tuesday, after the vehicle he was driving rear-ended another dump truck, in Fremont County. Sheriff’s Officials say 47-year old John Everett Miner, of Emerson, was flown from the scene near the intersection of 150th Street and 380th Avenue to the University of Nebraska Medical Center, for treatment of serious injuries. The driver of the other truck, 24-year old Jacob Ryan Miner, of Red Oak, was transported by Shenandoah Rescue to the Shenandoah Medical Center, for treatment of minor injuries.
Authorities say a 1996 Peterbilt dump truck driven by Jacob Miner was rear-ended by a 1994 Peterbilt dump truck driven by John Miner, as Jacob was slowing down to turn north onto 380th Avenue from eastbound 150th Street. The accident remains under investigation.

FORT LEAVENWORTH, Kan. (AP) – Former Kansas City Chiefs players, including Pro Football Hall of Fame linebacker Willie Lanier, are heading to Fort Leavenworth for talks with Army officials on traumatic brain injuries. Wednesday afternoon’s meeting at the northeast Kansas post is part of an Army-NFL partnership on treating and preventing head injuries in both organizations.
Lanier, who played from 1967 through 1977, serves on an NFL player safety panel studying ways to make the game safer. Lanier suffered numerous concussions in his early playing days before converting to a padded helmet and changing his tackling technique.
The military has been looking at the impact of traumatic brain injuries as soldiers return from combat.
