Inattentive driving was a likely contributing factor in a single-vehicle crash Friday night on state Highway 380 southeast of Prineville, according to the Crook County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies responded to the crash just before 10:30 p.m. about 8 miles outside Prineville. A female juvenile driving a Dodge Neon lost control and left the road, and her car struck several small trees and a wire fence before coming to rest on its side.

A passerby helped remove the driver from the car. She was taken to Pioneer Memorial Hospital for treatment of her injuries and released. No citations were issued.
