A two-vehicle wreck resulted in three injuries Tuesday evening in Washington County.
According to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, at about 6:03 p.m. dispatch advised of a two-vehicle head-on incident with injuries and the roadway blocked at the intersection Highway 1 and County Road G36 and Highway 92 northwest of Washington. Upon arrival it was determined that a Chevy Trailblazer driven by Madison Briggs of Russell was southbound on Highway 1 when she lost control of the vehicle, crossing the centerline and striking a Chrysler Town & Country driven by Ruth Vest of Keota head on. The Chrysler came to rest in the east ditch and the Chevy came to a rest in the middle of the roadway with both drivers unable to free themselves from their vehicles.
Briggs, Vest, and a passenger of Vest were transported by Washington County Ambulance Service to the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics, and both vehicles were towed from the scene. Citations are pending completion of the investigation. The Washington Police Department, Washington County Rescue, Washington Fire Department, and Moore’s Towing Service assisted at the scene. KCII will bring you more information as it becomes official.
