Fredericksburg woman ticketed for traffic accident

The temporary stop lights on Highway 52 just north of Highway 9 claimed two more accident victims on Wednesday.

Police say 82-year-old Michelle Pett of Fredericksburg did not see that traffic had stopped for the light--and ran into the back end of a car driven by 16-year-old Shawn Shindelar of Decorah.

The accident caused a total of $4,500 in damages.  Pett was given a ticket for failure to stop in a proper distance.
