3 hospitalized after vehicle accident in Blaine County

Three people were hospitalized Monday after a one-vehicle accident near Geary in Blaine County.

According to an Oklahoma Highway Patrol report, Brandi L. Black, 25; Nicholas Navarro, 4; and Damien Latham, 7, all of Geary, were listed in serious condition at OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City.

Black had leg and trunk injuries. Navarro had head injuries, and Latham had head and trunk injuries.

The accident happened at 3:12 p.m. on a county road two miles south of Geary, according to the report.

According to the report, Black was driving a 2000 Toyota Tacoma south on the road. She approached an intersection “at a speed greater than reasonable and proper for road conditions,” according to the report, and drove over some ruts in the road and went into an embankment.

Another passenger, Estaban Gonzalez, 21, of Geary, refused medical treatment at the scene, according to the report.

Seat belts and child restraints were not in use, according to the report, which listed unsafe speed as the cause.
