(Prescott) An Adams County Deputy was injured in a two-vehicle accident while en route to an emergency call.
The Iowa State Patrol says the accident happened around 11:55 a.m. on Sunday. Authorities say 52-year old Michael Laugholin, of Corning, suffered injuries in the crash.
The Patrol says Deputy Laugholin, responding to the emergency call, attempted to pass a 2017 Ford F250 pickup driven by 57-year old Robert Russell of Prescott. Russell tried to turn left, causing the collision. Both vehicles continued across the farm entrance and into the west ditch of Quincy Avenue.
A ground ambulance transported Laugholin to CHI Mercy Health in Corning. Robert Russell was not hurt.
The Adams County Sheriff’s Office assisted the Iowa State Patrol at the scene.
