The accident occurred at NE 47th and Brazee Street. The driver was going the wrong way on a roundabout, according to police.

Christopher Onslow was cited for failure to obey a traffic device -- while entering the traffic circle at a stop sign, Onslow drove clockwise instead of counter clockwise, Schmautz said.
