One person was arrested, and one non-injury accident was investigated Thursday, in Creston. Authorities say 25-year old Natasha Campbell, of Creston, was arrested at around 3:20-p.m. at 806 Laurel Street, and charged with Theft in the 4th Degree. Campbell was later released from the Union County Jail on $1,000 bond.

And, an accident that happened at around 11:40-a.m. at the intersection of South Elm and Highway 34 in Creston caused a total of $2,800, but no one was hurt. Officials say vehicle driven by 67-year old Jeannittie Todd, of Maloy, and 16-year old Brooke Hague, of Creston, collided as both drivers were traveling south on S. Elm Street.

When Todd stopped her 2007 Jeep at the intersection, Hague, who authorities say was following too closely, failed to stop her 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix in-time. Her car hit the left rear corner of the Jeep. No citations were issued.
