CHARLES CITY – A Charles City man’s farm tractor lost its trailer and struck a parked car, causing thousands of dollars in damage.
Charles City police responded to an accident at the 100 block of North Man Street on the afternoon of September 8 after a green Deitz-Allis 9170 tractor operated by 27-year-old Matthew Henning lost the trailer it was pulling. The trailer detached and struck a legally parked and unoccupied blue 2002 Buick LeSabre, causing an estimated $3,000 in damage to the car.
