(Creston, Iowa) – One person was injured during a rollover accident Tuesday afternoon, in Creston. According to the Creston Police Department, a 2020 Ford F-150 Supercab pickup truck driven by 55-year-old Fred Delong, of Creston, was traveling north on Cherry Street at around 4:50-p.m., and attempting to pass a vehicle, when the pickup went out of control after the tires of the camper/trailer being pulled by the pickup, left the paved portion of the road and onto the gravel shoulder on the opposite side of the road.

Delong said the trailer began to fishtail. The pickup & trailer crossed back over into the correct lane and overturned onto its side. The trailer and pickup slid down an embankment and rolled over. A passenger in the pickup, 66-year-old Jack Farlow, of Creston, complained of neck pain and was transported by EMS to the Greater Regional Medical Center in Creston.
