The snow and wind that accompanied it, Wednesday, made for near white out conditions at times, and road surfaces polished to a thin sheen of ice. The Council Bluffs Police Department was only responding to injury accidents or crashes involving disabled vehicles in the roadway, Wednesday. There were numerous other accidents, but as of this morning, there were no reports of serious injuries.

Red Oak Police said there were no injuries following a collision that took place a little before 6-p.m. Authorities say a 2019 Nissan Altima driven by 45-year old Jeanette Eggerss, of Red Oak, was traveling south on N. Broadway, and at the intersection with W. Oak Street, in the turning lane to turn east onto Oak. The stop light was red. A 2012 Buick Regal, driven by 18-year old Kevin McClurg, of Red Oak, was traveling south on N. Broadway. As McClurg approached the intersection, he braked, but his car began to slide on the icy roadway.

The Buick – registered to Leonard McClurg, of Red Oak – struck the right rear of the Nissan, causing a total of $2,000 damage. No citations were issued.
