Warren County Rollover Accident Injures Three
A single-vehicle accident near Roseville Thursday afternoon sent three people to a nearby hospitals for treatment.

State police at Macomb say the crash happened about 4:45 p-m on 65th Street, a half-mile south of 60th Avenue, when 17-year old Kirk Troyer of Roseville rolled the pick-up truck he was driving.

Troopers say Troyer was taken to OSF Holy Family Medical Center in Monmouth with moderate injuries. Two 14-year old boys who were not named were also hurt when they were thrown from the bed of the truck. One was taken by paramedics to the hospital in Monmouth with what police described as serious injuries. The other was transported to McDonough District Hospital in Macomb for treatment of moderate injuries.

Police say Troyer was northbound on 65th Street when he began to fishtail in the gravel and couldn't regain control. The vehicle went off the right side of the road, entered into a sideways slide and slid into a field before flipping three times.

Authorities say the crash investigation is pending. Assisting at the scene were the Warren County Sheriff's Department and GHAS.
