The Page County Sheriff’s Office says no serious injuries were reported following a rollover accident Tuesday afternoon. Deputies responded at around 3:15-p.m. to the scene of the accident in the 2100 block of Maple Avenue. An investigation determined 57-year old Corey A. Cloyed of Omaha, NE., was driving a 2019 Isuzu box truck owned by Keystone Automotive Industries, north bound on Maple Avenue in the 2200 block.

Cloyed started down a hill, and was slowing to enter the curve at the intersection of Maple Avenue and 220th Street (Maple curves west just north of the intersection), when the vehicle went out of control on the wet surface. The truck struck a road sign and then entered the north ditch ½ way into the curve, before rolling onto its side coming to rest in the ditch.

Corey Cloyed was unable to exit the vehicle. A passerby used a piece of metal to break out the windshield so Cloyed could escape. He refused medical treatment at the scene. Damage from the accident amounted to $15,500. No citations were issued. The Page County Sheriff’s Office was assisted at the scene by the Clarinda Ambulance service and the Clarinda Fire Department.
