A teenager driving in northeast Iowa’s Butler County, Saturday morning, rolled the vehicle he was driving while trying to control an animal. The Iowa State Patrol reports 17-year old Nicholas Grill, of Parkersburg, was driving a 2004 Chevy Malibu on Iowa Highway 57 at around 9:15-a.m., when he turned around inside the car, to control an unrestrained cat.

The car dropped off onto the right shoulder of the road, and when Grill over-corrected, the vehicle entered a ditch and rolled once, coming to rest upright. Grill, who was not wearing a seat belt, was transported by Parkersburg EMS to the Grundy County Memorial Hospital. There was no report on his condition, or the condition of the cat.

The Aplington P-D, Aplington EMS, along with Parkerburg Fire and EMS, assisted the State Patrol at the scene.
