A Creston man suffered suspected serious/unknown injuries following a rollover accident in Union County at around 11:50-p.m., Wednesday. The Union County Sheriff’s Office said Friday, 28-year old Quinton Lee Kimball was driving a 2015 Buick Enclave SUV eastbound on 140th Street, near the Green Valley Lake Dam, when he swerved to miss a deer on the road.

The SUV went out of control and entered the south ditch and eventually traversed a walking trail before hitting a power pole and rolling onto its top. Kimball was found by an Alliant Energy worker, who transported him to the Greater Regional Medical Center, in Creston.

Damage to the SUV was estimated at $16,500, while damage to the power pole was estimated at $1,500. Kimball was cited for having no insurance.
