The driver of the Explorer, who was not identified, lost control of the sport utility vehicle for unknown reasons while westbound about 8 p.m. However, for some unknown reason the vehicle flipped.
Five victims, ages 11 to 14, were taken to Kosair Children's Hospital with injuries that did not appear to be life threatening, Mitchell said.
Two other passengers were taken to University Hospital, including a 16-year-old who suffered critical injuries, he said.
Bahe Cook Cantley & Jones auto accident and product liability lawyer Larry Jones says, "Despite the fact that the driver in this case might have been at fault for the car wreck, vehicles are not supposed to flip. In cases in which an occupant suffers serious personal injuries, it is imperative that the vehicle be immediately secured and a product liability specialist is dispatched to inspect the vehicle, along with an accident reconstructionist."
