In an update to our earlier reports, that Cass County Sheriff’s Office says 38-year old Ryan Paul Elgin, of Casey, was arrested early SUNDAY morning, following a single-vehicle rollover accident northeast of Anita. Following an investigation into the accident, Elgin was taken into custody for OWI/offense. He was also cited for Failure to Maintain Control. The accident happened at around 1:04-a.m., Sunday on 760th Street, about one-half mile north of White Pole Road.

Elgin was driving a 2014 Ford F-150 pickup, and had attempted to back up and turn around at that location. In doing so, he backed into a ditch, causing the pickup to roll onto the passenger side. No injuries were reported. Damage to the vehicle is estimated at $1,500. Elgin was taken to the Cass County Jail and released later that day on his own recognizance.
