Three children were injured, including one that was seriously injured and had to be flown to the hospital, after a UTV rolled over into a ditch near Woodstock Saturday evening.

The Woodstock Fire/Rescue District, Hebron-Alden-Greenwood Fire Protection District and McHenry County Sheriff’s Office responded around 7:54 p.m. Saturday to the 2800 block of Raycraft Road in unincorporated Woodstock for a vehicle crash with entrapment.
