Three people received minor injuries Tuesday afternoon after a single vehicle hit an embankment and overturned.

18-year-old Kyle Orr was on Highway 4, driving a 1993 Dodge Intrepid westbound just before 2pm Tuesday.

The California Highway Patrol says Orr failed to negotiate a sweeping left curve and ran off the highway, west of Poole Station.

Orr and a 13-year-old passenger received cuts and scratches and were treated at Mark Twain St. Joseph´s Hospital.

Orr´s other passenger, 45-year-old Joseph Barretta, refused medical aid.
