Three injured after UTV rollover near Bokoshe

A 14-year-old Bokoshe girl was driving a UTV that rolled over on Middle Johnny Road Friday afternoon, injuring three of her four passengers, according to an Oklahoma Highway Patrol accident report.

The girl, who was not named because she is a juvenile, was driving westbound around 4:09 p.m. when the vehicle, a 2012 Polaris Ranger, slightly left the roadway before re-entering it. The driver then lost control, and the vehicle rolled a quarter turn onto its passenger side, the report states.

None of the occupants were wearing seatbelts, according to the report. The driver was not injured. Three of the four passengers were injured; none of the injuries were fatal. Next of kin were notified.

The crash occurred in LeFlore County and was investigated by Trooper Blake Palmer.
