An investigation into an accident around 4-p.m. Saturday in Mills County resulted in the arrest of a Pottawattamie County man. The Mills County Sheriff’s Office reports 51-year old Darren Eugene Weis, of Avoca, was taken into custody for OWI/3rd offense, and Driving While Revoked for a previous OWI. Weis was also cited for Failure to Maintain Control. His bond was set at $6,000.

Officials say Weis was driving a 2014 Infinity northbound on Interstate 29, when the car entered the median near the Mills/Pott. County line. The car hit several guardrail posts before getting back onto I-29 and continuing northbound. Weis then crossed the turnaround area in the median and went south on I-29 for about one-eighth of a mile before stopping his vehicle, which had sustained major front end damage.

The person who reported the incident and another passerby detained Weis from leaving the scene, until Deputies could arrive and take him into custody. No injuries were reported.
