A 16‑year‑old Lebanon girl was injured Wednesday afternoon in a rollover crash on Robertson Road, five miles east of Grovespring.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the crash happened at 4:15 p.m. when the westbound driver of a 2007 Hyundai Tucson was traveling too fast for conditions while using a phone. The vehicle failed to make a right turn, went off the left side of the roadway, struck an embankment, and overturned.
