STANTON, Neb. -- Four people were treated at the scene of a Stanton County crash early Monday, but no one was seriously injured.

Just before 2:00 a.m. on Monday morning, the Stanton County Sheriff’s office responded to and investigated a one vehicle rollover accident on Ridge Road about two miles north of Stanton.

The accident occurred when a northbound car driven by Andris Castillo-Machado, 29, of Stanton lost control and left the roadway, rolling several times into a field.

Castillo-Machado and three adult occupants were treated at the scene by Stanton Rescue and declined medical transport.

It was unclear if seatbelts were in use and the vehicle is a total loss, according to Sheriff Mike Unger. Speed is considered a contributing factor.

"It would be an under statement to say it was anything but miraculous that they were not all seriously injured or worse," Unger said in a press release.
