A Taylorsville teen was seriously injured in a Johnson County crash Saturday morning.

Sheriff’s deputies say that 18-year-old Zeckaraih L. Raleigh was flown to IU Methodist Hospital after being thrown from his vehicle when it hit a guardrail.

Sheriff Doug Cox says the accident happened on State Road 252 near Airport Road at about 1:45 a.m. Saturday morning when Raleigh lost control and crashed into a guardrail. Although his air bag did deploy, he was not wearing a seat belt, Cox says.
