A collision between an SUV and a car in Creston Friday afternoon resulted in one person being transported to the Greater Regional Medical Center. Creston Police say 42-year old James Pryor, and 18-year old Brandon Robertson, both of Creston, were traveling east on Highway 34 at around 2:20-p.m., when Pryor slowed to turn. Robertson told police he blacked out just before his Ford Escape hit the rear of Pryor’s Ford Taurus. Pryor said he could see Robertson’s vehicle quickly coming up on him, and knew he was about to be hit.

Robertson was taken to the hospital by his mother, while Pryor was apparently uninjured. Damage from the collision amounted to $2,200.
