Rear-ended
Between $1,000 and $2,500 in damage was done when a driver backed into a stopped vehicle in the Walmart parking lot in Portland.
On Friday at 2:52 p.m. Deborah Hough, 61, 375 W. 1200 South, Geneva, backed her 2008 Chevy Impala into the front of a 2007 Saturn Aura owned by Lynn Rees, 41, 119 N. Ash Street, Redkey.

The Rees vehicle was stationary in the lane of the parking lot as Hough reversed.
