A Carroll County resident was injured in a traffic crash in Lafayette County on Sunday.
A report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol says the crash occurred as a westbound vehicle, driven by 17-year-old Cinthia Ratliff, of Carrollton, reportedly lost traction, traveled off the south side of the roadway and struck an embankment.
Ratliff reportedly was transported by Waverly E.M.S. to Centerpoint Hospital in Independence for treatment of minor injuries.
The crash happened at about 11:15 p.m. on U.S. Highway 24, two-tenths of a mile west of Missouri Highway 23.
