SPRINGVILLE, Utah County — Four Springville teens were injured — one critically — after the jeep they were in rolled in the high school parking lot Tuesday.

The students had just finished with football practice when the jeep rolled in the parking lot at 11:37 a.m., said Springville Police Lt. David Caron. "According to witnesses, they began 'spinning donuts,' " he said.

Other football players who saw the accident ran to their aid and called 911.

Brandon Curtis, 18, was ejected during the rollover, Caron said. He was taken to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in critical condition. At least one of the other boys was also taken to the hospital for treatment.
