(KNZA)--A Highland, Kansas teenager was among four teens injured in a single-vehicle crash in Andrew County, Missouri Friday afternoon.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says it happened on Route O near County Road 290, west of Cosby, shortly before 5:00.

According to the Patrol report, the 18-year-old Highland teen was driving a Dodge Ram pickup westbound on Route O when he lost control of the vehicle, which traveled off the north side of the roadway.

The vehicle struck the ground with it's front bumper, traveled down an embankment and struck the ground again before coming to a stop.

The driver along with three passengers in his vehicle, an 18-year-old St. Joseph man, 19-year-old Sargent, Nebraska woman and 19-year-old St. Joseph woman, were transported by ambulance to Mosaic Life Care, in St. Joseph, with suspected minor injuries.

The Patrol says the Highland teen was the only occupant wearing a seat belt when the crash occurred.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol no longer releases the names of crash victims.
