An Atlantic man was arrested Friday on a charge of Public Intoxication. According to Atlantic Police, 48-year old Eric Asay was taken into custody and booked into the Cass County Jail, where he was held pending an appearance before the magistrate.

And, no injuries were reported following an accident Sunday evening at 7th and Oak Streets, in Atlantic. Officials say vehicles driven by Dusty Meek, of Lewis, and Donnie Drennan, of Atlantic, were traveling west on 7th Street at around 7:25-p.m., when Drennan slowed for a non-contact vehicle in front of him that was about to turn onto Oak Street. Meek failed to slow his vehicle in-time, and rear-ended the Drennan vehicle, causing $2,300 damage altogether. No citations were issued.
