The Marshalltown Police Department was called to the scene of a collision involving a Marshall County Sheriff’s Office patrol car driven by Deputy DeMorris Dean and a sports utility vehicle at the intersection of South Second Street and West Main Street Friday morning. No one was injured. “We do not yet have estimates; however, it appears that along with the body damage, the rear axle is likely broken as well,” Sheriff Steve Hoffman said of damages to the patrol car. “We anticipate the estimate to be substantial relative to the age and mileage of the car. Marshalltown Police investigated the crash.” The patrol car was towed from the scene. It was unclear if the other vehicle left under its own power or was towed.
