(KNZA)--An early Sunday morning Buchanan County, Missouri single-vehicle wreck sent two people to the hospital.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says it happened on Route DD about one mile east of Faucett shortly before 1:00.
The Patrol says 21-year-old Christopher Barnes, of St. Joseph, failed to negotiate a curve and his pickup truck traveled off the roadway. The vehicle struck a sign before traveling into a tree line and overturning, coming to rest on its top.
Barnes and a passenger, 19-year-old Amazonia, Missouri resident Corbin Hanson, were both taken by private vehicle to Mosaic Life Care in St. Joseph.
The Patrol says neither occupant was wearing a seatbelt.
