HANNIBAL, MO. (AP) -- Five members of a mission team from Hannibal-LaGrange College remain hospitalized after an accident in Haiti.
   
The Baptist-affiliated college sent 14 students and one faculty sponsor on mission work in earthquake-ravaged Haiti. On Saturday, members of the group were involved in an accident in which their vehicle overturned.
   
The injuries are not considered life-threatening, but four members of the HLG group are hospitalized in Miami and one in St. Louis, according to the college Web site. The others were treated and released.
   
The eight-day mission trip was through Haiti-based Blessing Hearts International.
