BETHANY, MO – An accident involving a golf cart in Harrison County left six juveniles injured on Sunday night, according to News Press-Now.
The incident happened on private property on an outer road one quarter mile northeast of Bethany.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s report said a 14-year-old Bethany girl was driving a Yamaha golf cart northbound in a field at about 8:49 p.m. when she attempted to go down a steep hill. The golf cart began overturning and came to rest facing south on its top, near a large brush pile.
Two youths on board, a 9-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, were seriously injured and taken via air ambulance to Children’s Mercy Hospital. The driver and three other passengers, girls ages 14, 12 and 11, had moderate injuries and were transported by private vehicle to Harrison County Community Hospital.
