A Baroda teenager has been hospitalized after losing control of his vehicle and striking a tree Sunday evening.

Cass County Sheriff Richard Behnke reports that at about 8:30 p.m., 18-year-old Alex Foster was driving around a curve on Peavine Street in Pokagon Township when he left the roadway and drove down an embankment into the tree.

He was transported to Borgess Lee Memorial in Dowagiac for minor injuries. Behnke says speed appears to be a factor in the crash.
