DANVILLE — A 16-year-old Danville girl was seriously injured when she was thrown from a sport utility vehicle after it crashed into a fence and a telephone pole and rolled multiple times before coming to rest on its roof at 4:35 p.m. Thursday on Liberty Valley Road in Valley Township, Montour County, state police at Milton said.

Two other girls in the vehicle were injured, but not seriously, said Mike Kull, chief of the Valley Township Fire Company. Liberty Valley Road is Route 642. The accident occurred at its intersection with Old Furnace Road.

State police Trooper Robert L. Hauck said the 16-year-old was the driver. The other two girls, also from Danville, are ages 15 and 14. He described the driver’s injuries as major and the other girls’ injuries as moderate.

He said the driver will be cited with a violation involving driving on roadways laned for traffic.

Hauck did not release their names. State police do not identify juveniles.

All three were taken by ambulances to Geisinger Medical Center. Geisinger does not provide condition information on unidentified patients.

Kull said he was notified of the accident at 4:40 p.m. He said the girls’ 1997 Mercury Mountaineer was traveling east when the driver “for some reason lost control and hit a pole on the north side of the road, in front of a home at 120 Liberty Valley Road. This was about a mile west of the Route 54 intersection.”

The impact threw two of the girls out of the SUV and onto the road, Kull said.

Also assisting state police were the Liberty Township Fire Company, Danville fire police and Danville, Milton and Lewisburg ambulances.
