Collision near Rockwell kills Hampton woman

     On the evening of Friday, November 25, just north of Rockwell  on U.S. Highway 65, there was a three-vehicle collision that left a Hampton woman deceased at the scene, according to a press release from the Cerro Gordo County Sheriff’s Office. 

     A 2005 Chevrolet K3500 pickup, driven by 59-year-old Paul Wood of Manly, was traveling north on Partridge Ave when it crossed the centerline and struck a southbound 2005 Chevy Impala driven by Hampton resident Griselda Tello, 22. Paramedics pronounced Tello dead at the scene. Wood was transported to Mercy Medical Center North Iowa with minor injuries.

     A third vehicle, driven by 58-year-old Sheffield resident Jacqueline Sickels, was also traveling south on Partridge when her 2001 Daewoo Lanos struck debris in the road that caused her vehicle to spin out of control. Sickels was taken to Mercy by private transportation for treatment.

   The collision remains under investigation by the Cerro Gordo County Sheriff’s Office and Iowa State Patrol.
