A motor vehicle accident shut down Highway 26 for some time last night. Scanner Traffic indicated a rollover accident at mile marker 19 on Highway 26 just west of Scottsbluff, possible entrapment and injuries. Two occupants in the car, one possibly entrapped. And further scanner traffic indicated an elderly female was now out of the vehicle after extrication. Partial trauma team was activated for the 66 year old female transported to Rregional West. The highway was closed for a total of 55 minutes.
Scanner Traffic also indicated several arrests overnight, starting with one just before midnight, where Trooper 239 had a female 10-15. Later, Trooper 449 was headed to Regional West Medical Center for a blood draw, which then resulted in a subsequent trip with one male 10-15 to Scotts Bluff County Jail.
Usual calls we hear are 10-59 10-74. That means be on the lookout. One was on Highway 26, mile marker 4 eastbound, a Wyoming vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed and unable to maintain lanes nearly causing a head-on collision. And then just moments later on, mile marker 35 on Highway 30 eastbound, a vehicle with 71 plates, a silver Chevy pickup, high speed, reckless driving.
For the unusual calls, Trooper 468 was busy taking care of a large dead raccoon in front of Subway in Morrill around 7:27 am.
Kimball County Sheriff's Office had at least one arrest as well. One of those was one male 10-15 at 10:55 pm transported from Scotts Bluff County Jail to Kimball County Jail. You may notice now if you are listening that we are now picking up Kimball County Sheriff's Office on the scanner traffic.
