BUCKNER - Four Franklin County teens received major injuries in a one-car crash in Buckner Wednesday afternoon.

Rhiannon M. Claxton, 17, Christian M. Corner, 16, and Devin A.

O'Daniell, 15, all of Christopher, were airlifted to Missouri hospitals after the 3:43 p.m. crash, while Jami L. Collier, 16, of Buckner, was taken to Franklin Hospital, Captain Don Jones of the Franklin County Sheriff's Department said.

The crash occurred as Claxton was driving westbound on East Main Street. Jones said Claxton's vehicle failed to stop at a stop sign, left the roadway, struck a curb and went airborne before coming to rest in a ditch.

One person had to be extricated from the car by responding emergency personnel, he said.

Claxton and Corner were flown to Cape Girardeau for treatment of injuries. O'Daniell was airlifted to a Saint Louis hospital, Jones said.

Claxton was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, disobeying a stop sign and operating an uninsured motor vehicle.
