(KAIR)--Three people were hurt in an Atchison County rollover crash Wednesday afternoon on U.S. 159 Highway, at 250th Road, at Effingham.
In a release, Atchison County Undersheriff Toby Smith says deputies, along with Atchison County EMS and Rescue, responded to that location around 4:50 Wednesday afternoon.
It was there, Smith says, a Ford F-150 driven by 18-year-old Zachary Allen Tull, of Rushville, Missouri, was southbound on U.S. 159 when the truck left the roadway to the right. The release says Tull over-corrected, causing the vehicle to spin around, slide off the right side of the road, and overturn twice, coming to rest upright on its wheels.
Smith says Tull had suspected minor injuries.
Two passengers were also in the pickup. A 16-year-old girl from Effingham was taken by Atchison County EMS to Amberwell Atchison for treatment of suspected serious injuries. A 12-year-old girl from Atchison was reported to have minor injuries. The release says Tull and the 12-year-old were taken to Amberwell Hospital by personal vehicle.
Smith notes none of the three were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash.
