No Injuries And Only Minor Damages Reported In Wednesday Accident On Hwy 71 Near Breda

No injuries and only minor damage were reported in a two-vehicle accident on U.S Highway 71 east of Breda Wednesday afternoon. The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to the scene near the intersection with 120th Street at approximately 2:32 p.m. Their initial investigation revealed a 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan, driven by 49-year-old Jennifer Louise Stargill of Lake View, was traveling southbound on 71 and was slowing for a snowplow. A 1997 Ford F250, driven by 26-year-old Colby Brady Seward of Carroll, was behind Stargill and was unable to slow in time to avoid colliding with the rear of the van. The Ford sustained minimal damage but needed to be pulled from the west ditch following the accident. The Dodge sustained approximately $2,500 in damage but was able to be driven from the scene.
