Officials say vehicles driven by 71-year old Susan Andersen, of Elk Horn, and 21-year old Dustin Goodridge, of Henderson, collided at the intersection of Highway 173 and 400th Street, when Anderson tried to turn left onto 400th Street, as she was traveling north on Highway 173.

Her 2007 Ford Freestar van was hit by Goodridge’ southbound 2001 Ford Taurus. Anderson, and her passenger, 82-year old Charles Anderson, of Elk Horn, were transported to Myrtue Hospital, in Harlan.
