Two teens were injured overnight when the vehicle they were in rolled on Fremont County Road 15. It happened about five miles southwest of Florence at around 1 a.m. Thursday.

The driver of a sport utility vehicle, Marcus Mast, 27, of Florence lost control on a right hand turn.

The three backseat passengers, one 16 and two 17 year olds, were not wearing seatbelts and were ejected during the rollover. The 16 year old sustained serious injuries, and one of the 17 year olds received moderate to serious injuries. The other 17 year old was not injured, nor was the front passenger.

Alcohol is suspected as a contributing factor in the crash.
