Two teenagers were injured Friday night in a one-vehicle rollover wreck.
A 14-year-old female was driving a 2001 Ford Sport Track approximately five miles west of Glasgow on Park City-Glasgow Road Friday shortly after 11 p.m. when she overcorrected after traveling off the roadway and lost control of the vehicle, according to a Barren County Sheriff’s report. The truck overturned and came to rest on its side.
A 17-year-old passenger was able to pull himself from the vehicle, but the driver was partially ejected. The juveniles, both of Barren County, were taken from the scene to T.J. Samson Community Hospital for treatment of injuries. The 14-year-old female was transported by Barren-Metcalfe Emergency Medical Service. The 17-year-old male was taken to the hospital by private means. No patient condition information was available at press time.
Deputy Adam Minor continues to investigate the incident. He was assisted at the scene by Constable Gary Gillon along with South Barren Volunteer Fire Department.
