A collision between a pickup and a car Sunday afternoon in Guthrie County, caused the car to roll over and end up in a ditch. The Guthrie County Sheriff’s Office reports the crash happened at around 3:20-p.m. southeast of Panora, at the intersection of 230th Street and Willow Avenue.

The 2011 Toyota Tundra pickup driven by 17-year old Conor M. McCarthy, of Guthrie Center, was traveling north on Wilson Avenue and had proceeded through the intersection with 230th. A 2003 Saturn Vue driven by 42-year old Robert James Fuller, of Guthrie Center, was traveling east on 230th. When Fuller failed to stop at the controlled intersection, his car was struck on the front passenger side by the pickup.

Following the collision, both vehicles continued toward the northeast corner of the intersection, where the car went into the north ditch and rolled over. No injuries were reported. Damage from the collision amounted to $15,500. Authorities say Fuller was cited for Failure to Obey a Stop sign and Yield the Right-of-Way, and Failure to provide proof of insurance.
