(KLZA)-- Two men were injured Wednesday morning in a wreck near Craig, Missouri.
The Missouri Highway Patrol report indicates the wreck occurred in a construction zone two miles north of Craig on U.S. 59 Highway about 10:40 a.m.
A delivery van, driven by 25-year-old Joshua Lawson of Kansas City, Missouri, slid out of control, striking the rear of a semi-tractor and trailer. A Missouri Department of Transportation Flagman had stopped the semi in the southbound lane of the workzone.
When the van struck the trailer the semi was towing, Lawson was ejected out of the front passenger door of the van.
The semi driver, 68-year-old Dennis Thurnau of Oregon, Missouri suffered what were described as minor injuries. Thurnau refused medical treatment.
Lawson’s injuries were described as moderate but he also refused medical treatment.
The 2010 delivery van was totaled and was towed away. The semi suffered moderate damage and was driven from the scene.
The Holt County Sheriff’s Office assisted the State Patrol at the scene.
