Spencer, IA — Both drivers and a passenger were taken to the Spencer Hospital with what are suspected to have been minor injuries in an early, Friday evening accident in North Spencer.

The Iowa State Patrol says 25-year-old Breanna Ferreira was Northbound on Highway 71, turned left across traffic onto West 18th Street, and struck the southbound vehicle driven by 64-year-old Aaron Hyatt of Milford.

Ferreira, Hyatt, and 26 year old Storm Walvord of Spencer were all transported by ambulance.

The accident report says Ferreira’s view of the Hyatt vehicle was obscured by another Southbound vehicle on the inside lane.
