MADILL, Okla. (AP) A 7-year-old Oklahoma City girl is killed and five people are injured when the vehicle they were riding in struck an embankment and flipped end over end.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says all six occupants were ejected in Saturday's crash.

The patrol says Kaylynn Prestridge was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash, which happened about 5PM about three miles east of Madill on State Highway 199.

The OHP says the driver of the vehicle -- 36-year-old Phillip Prestridge of Oklahoma City -- was arguing with 32-year-old Barbara Kelly in the front seat when Kelly attempted to jump out of the moving vehicle.

The patrol says when Phillip Prestridge and Kelly's 9-year-old daughter -- Rikki Lynn Bell -- tried to stop her, the driver lost control of the vehicle, ran off the road and struck an embankment.

Phillip Prestridge, Barbara Kelly, Rikki Bell, and 13-year-old Randi Kelly all were airlifted to area hospitals and listed in critical condition. A sixth passenger -- 14-year-old Kimberly Tabor -- was listed in fair condition at the University of Oklahoma Medical Center in Oklahoma City.
