The driver of a 2002 Ford was cited for Failure to Yield (FTY), following a collision that occurred at around 10:07-a.m. Saturday, in Mills County. The Sheriff’s Office says a 2022 Mazda driven by Daniel Clark, of Papillion, NE, was traveling west on Bunge Avenue, when the Ford, driven by 67-year-old Leslie Smith, of Red Oak, left his stopped position. The Ford pulled out in front of the Mazda, causing the Clark vehicle to strike Smith’s Ford in the middle of the intersection at Bunge and 189th Street.

Clark and a passenger in his vehicle were transported to Mercy Hospital for treatment of their injuries. Authorities cited Smith for the FTY offense.
