A rollover accident between Exira and Hamlin Tuesday night resulted in two juveniles being transported to the hospital for treatment of unknown injuries. Audubon County Sheriff Todd Johnson said the Sheriff’s Department received a call about a rollover accident at around 9:35-p.m. in the 2,500 block of Highway 71. When Deputies arrived, they found the vehicle – a 2005 Chevy Impala – on its top in the ditch. Audubon and Exira Fire and Rescue responded to the scene and transported the juveniles to the hospital.

The Sheriff says it’s believed the vehicle was traveling left of center on Highway 71, when the driver over-corrected, causing the car to go out of control. Additional details are currently not available.
