DARLINGTON - No injuries were reported from a rollover accident on County W in the Town of Monticello at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 6. Ryan S. Bartell, 24, Stockton, was eastbound when a westbound truck lost a tire from the trailer it was towing. The tire rolled into Bartell's lane of travel and he was unable to avoid hitting it. The 1997 Jeep Wrangler he was driving skidded across the road into the opposite ditch, where it rolled and came to a rest on its wheels. The driver of the truck and trailer was unaware of the tire loss, as it was part of dual set, and continued westbound on County W. Bartell's Jeep was moderately damaged and towed. The Apple River Fire Department and First Response, Shullsburg Ambulance and Warren Police Department assisted at the scene.
