A Malvern woman was injured last week, when the vehicle she was driving plowed into the wall of a Post Office in Malvern. The Mills County Sheriff’s Office reports June Malcom was attempting to park her 2005 Buick at around 9:35-a.m. Wednesday, when she stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake. He car hit the west wall of the Post Office. Malcom was transported to Jennie Edmundson Hospital in Council Bluffs, by Malvern Rescue. There was no report on the extent of her injuries, or a dollar figure on the damage to the car and building.

Later that same day, Brooke Paulsen, of Malvern, was driving a 2002 Buick westbound on Keys Avenue, when she lost control of the vehicle prior to crossing a bridge. The car hit the south side of the bridge and came to rest on a gravel road. Paulsen was cited for Failure to Maintain Control. No injuries were reported.
