HARRISON COUNTY —Three people were injured in an accident just before 4:30p.m. Monday in Harrison County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported a 2006 Ford F150 driven by Johnathan M. Kelley, 26, Bethany, was northbound on U.S. 69 six miles southwest of Bethany.

The pickup traveled off the east side of the road, began to skid and slide, and the driver overcorrected. The pickup returned to the road, crossed the center of the road and traveled off the west side. The undercarriage of the pickup struck an embankment and caused the vehicle to roll and strike a tree.

A private vehicle transported Kelley and Jillian K. Kelley, 22, Pattonsburg, and a 3-year-old Bethany boy to Harrison County Community Hospital.  All three were properly restrained, according to the MSHP.
