Four teens were injured in a rollover crash Sunday in Livingston County, two miles west of Chillicothe, Missouri.

The teens were eastbound on Liv 256 around 7:28 p.m. when the 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe began sliding on the gravel, resulting in the vehicle traveling off the road and overturning, according to a Missouri State Highway Patrol crash report.

The 16-year-old driver was ejected from the Tahoe and life-flighted to Children’s Mercy for serious injuries.

A 13-year-old passenger was transported to Hederick Medical Center for moderate injuries. Two other occupants, 14 years old and 15 years old, sustained minor injuries.

The four occupants were no wearing seat belts, according to the crash report.
