Eleven persons were injured in a three-vehicle pileup at 8:14 a.m. Monday in LeFlore County. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol reported John Carson, 22, of Heavener, driving a 2012 Mazda, was trying to turn from U.S. Highway 271 when a second vehicle, a 2001 Ford pickup, driven by Zachary Taylor, 29, of Red Oak, failed to yield and struck the Mazda. Carson and the Mazda then struck a third vehicle, a 2009 Chevrolet Suburban driven by Kristy Cox, 43, of Clayton. The impact caused the Suburban to flip onto its side. Eight teens were riding in the Suburban. The OHP reported Carson was trapped in the Mazda for about five minutes and was extricated by a passing motorist.
