An Effingham teenager was injured in a crash Monday evening.

Effingham County Sheriff's Department reports the crash happened at 6:57pm on 1100th Avenue, just west of 250th Street, just north of Altamont.

Deputies say 18-year-old Dylan Loy lost control of the car he was driving on loose gravel. The car entered the ditch and rolled onto the driver's side.

Loy was taken to HSHS St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital in Effingham.

Loy was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid the crash.
