CALDWELL COUNTY —Three people were injured in an accident just after noon Sunday in Caldwell County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported a 2000 Ford Ranger driven by a 17-year-old Hamilton boy was southbound on Route B five miles southeast of Hamilton.

The pickup was traveling too fast, crested a hill and the driver lost control. The pickup began to skid, traveled off the southwest side of the road, struck a driveway, overturned, struck a fence and a large rock.
