Accident

On Saturday, July 18th, 2015, at approximately 10:13 p.m., the Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office received a call in reference to a single vehicle accident in the 4800 block of 380th Street. Following an investigation into the incident, the Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office determined that Julynn Hesebeck, 16, of Emmetsburg was driving a 1997 Chevrolet Blazer westbound in the 4800 block of 380th Street. Hesebeck lost control of the vehicle and the vehicle began to pull to the north shoulder. Hesebeck then over corrected in an attempt to gain control of the vehicle. Hesebecks vehicle slid sideways and entered the north ditch. Once entering the north ditch, the vehicle rolled once before coming to rest on the drivers side doors. There was an estimated $3000.00 damage done to the Chevrolet Blazer. Hesebeck and another passenger in the vehicle were transported by private vehicle to seek medical attention. Two other occupants in the vehicle did not seek medical attention. The Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office cited Hesebeck for failure to maintain control of the vehicle, which is a simple misdemeanor.
