A collision in Union County Wednesday evening caused about $2,500 damage altogether, but there were no reports of injuries. The Union County Sheriff’s Office says a 1986 Mercedes 190 driven by 16-year old Dominic J. Maples, of Winterset, came upon the intersection of Warbler and 140th Street at around 5:55-p.m., when his brakes didn’t work properly. Maples tried to swing wide to turn the car around, when he pulled into the path of a 2001 Chevy pickup driven by 16-year old Megan E. Keller, of Murray.

The accident happened as Keller was traveling westbound and did not have a stop sign. The pickup struck the car on the driver’s side. Following the collision, the Mercedes entered the ditch on the southwest corner of the intersection. The pickup remained on the road. Authorities say Maples was cited for Failure to Obey a Stop Sign and Yield the Right of Way.

The Sheriff’s Office said also, a Creston man reported Wednesday evening, that someone had damaged the door to his property near Afton. The damage was estimated at $200.
