Investigating officers reported a vehicle driven by Jose Jiron, 20, of Fort Worth, Texas, was eastbound on Meadowlark Road, following a vehicle driven by Edgar Zavala, 44, also of Fort Worth. Zavala had stopped at the traffic control device at the intersection of Meadowlark and Middle Hesper Road.

Winneshiek County Sheriff’s Office was called to an accident Nov. 4 on Sattre Ridge Road. Jayden Waterbeck, 26, of Decorah was reportedly heading east on Sattre Ridge Road, following a semi hauling corn. The semi was driven by Kenneth Nordheim, 79, of Decorah. Nordheim was navigating a right hand turn when Waterbeck’s vehicle struck the rear of the semi-trailer (corn hauler). Waterbeck stated that he knew the semi was in front of him but the gravel dust was too thick and that he thought he was further away than he was. Waterbeck’s vehicle became stuck to the rear of the trailer and was dragged for several feet before Nordheim stopped. No injuries were reported. Damages totaled $7,000 to Nordheim’s vehicle and $15,000 to Waterbeck’s vehicle.
