The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office says no injuries were incurred during a single vehicle accident on Tuesday. At approximately 1:38pm a 1999 Silver Dodge Dakota pickup owned and operated by Austin M. Petersen of Red Oak was traveling westbound on 190th. Petersen lost traction on the snow/slush covered road and crossed the center-line entering the south ditch of 190th Street near the intersection with J Avenue. The left rear of the truck struck a utility pole causing the left rear axle to shear off and damage the box side of the truck. The truck sustained an estimated $2,500 damage and there appeared to be no damage to the utility pole. No citations were issued and the investigation is complete.
