A man from Arkansas suffered minor injuries to his hand but refused medical treatment, following a rollover accident this morning, east of Atlantic. The Cass County Sheriff’s Office told KJAN News 22-year old Royce Edward Katzer, of Quitman, AR., was traveling northbound on 650th Street at around 6:41-a.m., when he swerved to avoid a deer on the road. His 2013 Honda Civic crossed the centerline of the road and went out of control before it rolled once into the west ditch, coming to rest on its wheels facing south. Damage to the vehicle was estimated at $10,000. Officials say Katzer was not wearing his seat belt. No citations were issued. Atlantic Fire and Rescue, Medivac, and Atlantic Police and the Cass County Sheriff’s Office all responded to the scene.
