According to the Creston Police Department, 16-year-old Cain Harmening, of Creston, was transported by his parents to the Greater Regional Medical Center in Creston, following the collision that occurred at around 7:40-p.m. at the intersection of Howard and Elm Streets.

Authorities say a 2005 Chevy Monte Carlo driven by 17-year-old Boone Zerick Virgil Pryor, of Afton, was traveling west on Howard Street. Pryor told police he was moving his food and not paying attention, when his car ran the stop sign at the intersection. As the Chevy entered the intersection, it was struck on the passenger side, by a southbound Chrysler 200, driven by 25-year-old Cheyenne Louise Goodnight, of Creston.

The Monte Carlo sustained disabling damage during the crash. The vehicles sustained estimated at $6,000 damage altogether. No citations were issued, but authorities say Goodnight was not able to provide proof of insurance.
