Guthrie County Deputy Sheriff Shane Martinson reported a single-vehicle accident occurring on Jan. 27 at 7:01 p.m. on York Avenue. Marshall Lee Dickson, 18, of Stuart was driving a 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LT that entered the ditch. Deputy Sheriff Martinson reported that upon his arrival, the vehicle was already loaded onto a car trailer. Dickson said he was test driving the vehicle because he was going to buy it from a friend. Dickson said he lost traction on the rumble strips in the gravel and entered the left ditch and struck several small trees. Dickson was issued a citation for failure to maintain control of the vehicle. Damage to the Monte Carlo is estimated at $2,600.
