An single car accident around 11:20 p.m. last night sent a Butler teen to the hospital with moderate injuries. Melody E. Raney, 17, of Butler was traveling northbound on 71 highway just south of the Adrian exit when her 2008 Ford went off the left side of the roadway, struck a culvert, overturned and came to a rest on its wheels.
The report filed by MSHP Trooper Dodson shows the driver was wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident. Ms. Raney was transported to Bates County Memorial Hospital for treatment.
