No injuries were reported following a rollover accident Friday afternoon, northwest of Shenandoah. The Page County Sheriff’s Office says 20-year old Jennifer Lane, of Shenandoah, was traveling south on A Avenue near 170th Street at around 1:10-p.m.  As her 2004 Chevy pickup topped a hill, Lane noticed a legally parked semi truck at the bottom of the hill. The woman panicked, slammed on the brakes, and caused the pickup to skid off the east side of the road and into a ditch, where it rolled over. The vehicle sustained $15,000 damage and was declared a total loss. No citations were issued.
