OLIVIA -- Three teen-agers were injured in a one-vehicle rollover Saturday morning near Olivia.
One of the occupants of the vehicle used a cell phone to call the Renville County Sheriff's Department at 4:22 a.m. Saturday but was unsure of the location.
Using the 911 cellular mapping system and information from a passerby, authorities found the accident site about three miles southwest of Olivia on County Road 17.
A 1998 Pontiac Bonneville had gone into the ditch, overturned and come to rest in a drainage ditch. All three occupants were able to escape from the vehicle. They were taken to the Renville County Hospital in Olivia and later released.
The driver was Damon Muchow, 17, of Winthrop. Passengers were Christopher Woodford, 18, of Fairfax and Taylor Heikkila, 17, of Gibbon.
