DATE & TIME: September 27, 2018 at 1608 Hours    

LOCATION: S 66th Rd and US Hwy 136                   

OFFENSE: Two Vehicle Motor Vehicle Accident

CASE #: 2018-4853

 

On September 27, 2018, the Gage County Sheriff’s Office responded to a two vehicle non-injury accident at S 66th Road and US Highway 136 in Gage County.  Melinda Christen of Filley, NE was in operation of a 2016 Nissan SUV traveling westbound on US Highway 136. As she slowed to turn into the Pumpkin Patch, a westbound 1966 Chevrolet pickup, driven by Drew Hobaugh of Adams, NE, was unable to slow down for the turning vehicle. The Chevrolet pickup evaded striking the rear of the Nissan as it drove around on the right side of the vehicle since there was an oncoming vehicle preventing the 1996 Chevrolet pickup to pass on the left.  The resulting evasive action resulted in an impact of the right passenger side of the 2016 Nissan SUV.

 

Neither alcohol or drugs were suspected in the accident.  There is a citation pending.
