(KLZA)-- Six people were transported to the Fairfax Hospital Tuesday evening following a one-vehicle wreck on Interstate 29 approximately three miles east of Watson.

The Missouri Highway Patrol report indicates that shortly before 9 o'clock, the front passenger tire on southbound mini-van deflated, causing the driver to lose control. The mini-van left the road and struck a ditch, filled with water and overturned, coming to rest on it's top.

The driver, 33-year-old Alisha Sachs of Tarkio suffered minor injuries. 31-year-old Mark Sachs of Lincoln, Nebraska was a passenger and suffered moderate injuries. Neither was wearing safety devices at the time of the wreck.

There were four children in the van, three girls and a boy ranging in age from 4 to 10 years of age. All four children were using safety devices and suffered only minor injuries.

The Atchison-Holt Ambulance Squad, Missouri Department of Conservation, Rock Port Fire Department and Rock Port Police Department all assisted at the scene of the wreck.
