(Update 7:30-a.m.) Anita Rescue and Wiota First Responders were called to the scene of a semi-tractor trailer rollover accident at around 4:30-a.m. today (Friday). According to dispatch reports, the crash occurred near 50635 690th, which is just southwest of Interstate 80 (Exit 64). One person was said to have been suffering from a head injury. They were transported to the Cass County Memorial Hospital, in Atlantic. According the Cass County Emergency Management Director Mike Kennon, the accident happened when the semi, which was hauling hogs, left the Interstate and was turning south from the off-ramp onto Highway N-28, toward Wiota, when the semi entered the ditch and rolled over.

Authorities were working to reload the hogs onto another semi-trailer. For now, Kennon is asking motorists to avoid the area.
