Four juveniles were injured, one critically, in a crash in Rice County Thursday night.
The crash happened in Northfield at 10:39 p.m., according to a Minnesota State Patrol crash report.
The patrol says a juvenile female was driving the Honda Accord west on Highway 19 when the car hit a river bridge and slid down an embankment.
There were three minor girls who were passengers in the Honda when it crashed. One of the girls suffered life-threatening injuries, but the patrol report doesn’t indicate she was transported to a hospital.
The driver and the other two passengers had non-life threatening injuries but weren’t hospitalized, according to the patrol report.
The girls’ ages, names, and hometowns were not disclosed in the report.
