(Spencer)– Multiple charges have been filed against a Spirit Lake woman following a single vehicle crash Friday evening in the 3100 mile of Highway 71 between Spencer and Fostoria.
Clay County authorities say they started getting reports around 7:35 pm of a reckless driver headed southbound in the 3000 mile of Highway 71. About a minute or so later they say they started getting reports of a single vehicle rollover in roughly that same area. Deputies say the vehicle had been traveling at a high rate of speed, went into the west ditch and rolled, coming to rest on the passenger side. They say the driver, 42-year-old Jolynn Pullen of Spirit Lake, wasn’t injured in the crash and had initially fled the scene. She was located a short time later by Spencer police.
An investigation resulted in Pullen being arrested on charges of operating while intoxicated…1st offense, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, failure to maintain control, failure to provide proof of financial liability…accident related, and careless driving.
Pullen was booked into the Clay county jail pending an initial court appearance.
The vehicle was totaled in the crash.
