A one vehicle roll-over crash occurred on County Rd 249 east of Caledonia near Esch Road Saturday, July 4. Hannah Nack of Caledonia was eastbound when she failed to negotiate the curve (at Esch Rd), ran off the highway, and while correcting caused the car to roll multiple times before coming to rest blocking the westbound lane. Neither Nack nor her passenger David Ranzenberger (also of Caledonia) were seatbelted at the time of the crash. Nack was treated and released, and Ranzenberger was not treated.

|
The Houston County Criminal Justice Center (CJC), which has been in the
works for more than a dozen years, took a gigantic step towards
becoming a reality Monday night. The Caledonia City Council unanimously
approved five separate zoning requests to locate the CJC in downtown
Caledonia.
The June 29 action by the city council now enables the county to move
forward with the 65,000 square foot building, which will be located
just east of the existing courthouse and jail along Pine Street.
About 25 persons attended Monday night’s public hearing, held at the Municipal Auditorium, which lasted about 45 minutes.
