Authorities in Creston say no injuries were reported following a collision Friday morning. According to the officer’s report, a 1997 Ford Ranger pickup driven by 71-year old Douglas John Lee, of Creston, was traveling westbound on Howard Street at around 9-a.m., and approaching a stop sign at Lincoln Street. Lee stopped and pulled away from the stop sign, then paused before proceeding into the intersection. He didn’t see a 2013 4-door Ford driven by 53-year old Mark Eugene Chubick, of Creston, that was traveling north on Lincoln. Chubick had the right-of-way.

Chubick told authorities Lee failed to stop. He tried to steer to the right to avoid a collision, but was unable to do so due to the snow on the road. The left front side of Chubick’s vehicle made contact with the left rear side of the pickup. An investigation resulted in Douglas Lee being given a verbal warning for Failure to Yield the Right-of-Way from a stop sign. Damage from the collision amounted to $10,000.
