Lost control

A Portland man’s truck and trailer went off county road 75 South about noon Wednesday.

Chad C. Fifer, 39, was driving on Indiana 67 when he started to turn his 2003 Ford F-550 east onto county road 75 South. He later told police he believed his trailer’s brakes had gone out because he lost control and went into the ditch.

Damage is estimated between $10,000 and $25,000.
