SPEARFISH, S.D. – The highway patrol says three Rapid City individuals suffered serious, non-life-threatening injuries Wednesday morning in a single-vehicle crash east of Spearfish.
Preliminary crash information indicates the driver of a 2002 Ford F-150 was traveling west on I-90 at mile marker 14 when a front tire failed.
The 30-year-old male driver lost control of the vehicle and ran into a cable guard rail. The truck went airborne and rolled. One of the passengers, an 18-year-old female, was ejected from the vehicle. The driver and other passenger, a 17-year-old female, exited the vehicle before it became engulfed in fire. All three people were transported to a Spearfish hospital.
The South Dakota Highway Patrol is investigating the crash.
