POWELL BUTTE, OR -- A Prineville woman was unhurt after her car crashed through a barbed wire fence near Powell Butte, yesterday. The Crook County Sheriff's Department says 65-year old Perry Garrett momentarily took her eyes off the road as she drove eastbound on Highway 126 at about 11 a.m., Tuesday.
She drifted across the highway and hit a barbed wire fence, dragging it as she returned to the roadway. Both lanes were blocked for a time, as that barbed wire was cleared.
