Police in Creston say the driver of an SUV failed to yield the right-of-way at an uncontrolled intersection, Friday afternoon, and was broadsided by a car. Authorities say 27-year old Shawna Rae Carr, of Creston, was traveling west on Summit Street at around 3:40-p.m., and didn’t immediately notice a 2005 Kia Sportage driven by 26-year old Matthew John Onstank, of Creston, who was traveling south on Mulberry Street.

Onstank couldn’t stop in time. His KIA t-boned Carr’s 2007 Ford Edge, causing a total of $9,000 damage. Carr told Police Onstank was traveling “really fast,” according to the report. No citations were issued.
