Three Nowata County teenagers were injured in a single-vehicle wreck Sunday night near Lenapah.
According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, a 2006 Buick Terraza driven by a 16-year-old female from Wann lost control of the vehicle on North-South 411 Road, or about 4 miles northwest of Lenapah just after 11 p.m. Sunday. Troopers say the driver lost control and over-corrected causing the vehicle to leave the roadway and overturn. An 18-year-old male passenger from South Coffeyville was not wearing his seatbelt and was ejected from the vehicle. The 16-year-old driver was transported to Coffeyville Regional Medical Center where she was treated and released. Another passenger, a 17-year-old male from Nowata, was also taken to the hospital, treated and released. The 18-year-old passenger was taken to CRMC and later transported to a hospital in Wichita with several injuries.
OHP says the driver was driving too fast on a gravel road, which caused the wreck.
