The Audubon County Sheriff’s Department reports the arrest last Friday night of a Cass County man. 49-year old Douglas Allen Bissell, of Atlantic, was arrested at around 11:30-p.m Friday, following an investigation into an accident that occurred on north Kilworth Street in Exira, Friday evening. Bissell faces  OWI/1st offense, and Failure to Maintain Control charges. He was brought to the Audubon County Jail and released after appearing before the magistrate.

Officials say Bissell was traveling east on Washington Street in Exira, when he made a left turn onto north Kilworth. As it continued north on Kilworth, Bissell’s 2011 Ford struck a legally parked 2002 Dodge owned by Alan Seehusen, of Exira. No injuries were reported. Damage from the crash amounted to $14,000.
