In an update to our earlier report, a central Iowa man was transported to the Cass County Memorial Hospital by Griswold Rescue following a rollover accident Monday night, in Lewis. The Cass County Sheriff’s Office says 67-year old William Forsythe, of West Des Moines, was driving a 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander southbound on 582nd Street, when the vehicle failed to negotiate a sharp curve in the road. The SUV rolled into a ditch and onto its top, sustained about $10,000 damage. Forsythe was trapped in the vehicle by his seat belt for a time, until he could be freed. The accident happened at around 9:45-p.m.

The Sheriff’s Office reports also, 21-year old Matthew Robert Glidden, of Audubon, was arrested Monday, on a charge of OWI 1st Offense. Glidden was taken to the Cass County Jail where he was released on his own recognizance today (Tuesday).
