A Watson teenager was injured in a Wednesday evening crash.

16-year-old Andrew M. Wilkins was traveling east on 500th Avenue, just east of 1500th Street, southeast of Watson, when the crash happened at 7:16pm.

Effingham County Sheriff's Department reports Wilkins lost control of his vehicle, causing it to leave the roadway and overturn. Wilkins was injured and was taken to HSHS St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital in Effingham.

Wilkins was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, and no valid registration.
