Rear-end collision

A Portland man drove his vehicle into the back of a Portland woman’s car at the intersection of Ship and Arch streets in Portland about 3:15 p.m. Saturday.

Donald W. Burress, 59, was driving south on Ship Street when he failed to see a 2004 GMC Envoy driven by Angela L. Shultz of Portland in front of his vehicle. Shultz was stopped at the intersection of Ship and Arch streets when Burress’ 1999 Oldsmobile Bravada collided with her vehicle.

Damage is estimated between $1,000 and $2,500.



Mirrors strike

Jay County residents driving opposite directions on county road 250 West collided with the other’s side view mirrors about 8:45 p.m. Friday.

Jeffrey L. Trinidad, 24, Dunkirk, told Jay County Sheriff’s Department he was driving north on the road while Randy K. Massie, 60, Portland, was driving south. When Trinidad’s 2013 Ram 1500 passed Massie’s 2009 Dodge Ramp Pickup, their side view mirrors struck each other. Trinidad’s mirror then swung into his window and broke it.

Damage is estimated less than $1,000.
