Three men were injured in a roll-over accident Tuesday night on U.S. Highway 77 at Bronco Road, five miles south of Perry in Noble County, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol reports.
The accident occurred at 10:19 p.m. Tuesday.
A 2005 Toyota driven by Ovadyah Baruh Hawkins, 27, of Perry, was southbound on U.S. 77 and left the road to the left, the Patrol reported. The car collided with a fence and rolled 2 3/4 times.
Hawkins was transported by Perry EMS to OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City, where he was admitted in serious condition with trunk and head injuries.
