(Milford)– A Spencer teen walked away uninjured from a single-vehicle rollover Wednesday on Highway 71 about a half mile south of the intersection with county road A43 near the Clay-Dickinson county line.
The Iowa State Patrol says 16-year-old Keaton Jones of Spencer was northbound and had just crossed into Dickinson county when the left side of the vehicle he was driving dropped off onto the shoulder of the median. Jones lost control as the vehicle slid across both northbound lanes of the highway, turning sideways as it went into the east ditch where it rolled once.
$2,000 in damage was estimated to a 1993 Buick Regal Jones was driving.
Jones was cited for failure to maintain control.
The crash took place shortly before 8:00 a.m.
