The Union County Sheriff’s Office reports three people suffered suspected minor/non-incapacitating injuries Tuesday afternoon, following a collision about four-miles east/southeast of Arispe. Authorities say a 2013 Ram pickup driven by 33-year old Dusten Kyle Carrington, of Afton, and a 1998 Ford F-150 pickup driven by 30-year old Dylan Douglas Steinhoff, of Arispe, were rounding a curve in opposite directions near Squirrel Avenue and 255th Street at around 4:20-p.m., when the F-150 went out of control and crossed the centerline of the road, into the path of the Ram pickup. The vehicles collided in the southeast corner of the curve.

Both drivers, and a passenger in the Dodge, 41-year old Brenda Lou Carrington, of Afton, were injured. Only Brenda Carrington was wearing a seat belt. The drivers and passenger were transported by Medic1 to the Greater Regional Medical Center, in Creston. Sheriff’s deputies cited Steinhoff for Failure to Maintain Control. Both trucks were totaled in the crash.

In other news, the Union County Sheriff’s Office says a woman from Afton reported Tuesday, that someone took prescription medication from her home sometime that morning. Estimated value of the medication was $250.
