(KLZA)--A Pawnee City, Nebraska man escaped serious injury in a single-vehicle wreck Wednesday evening a mile north of Fortescue in Holt County, Missouri.

The Missouri Highway Patrol says 66-year-old Danford Brown was southbound on Route P when the semi-truck he was driving traveled off the west side of the road and overturned, coming to rest on its top.  

The Patrol says Brown suffered what were described as minor injuries, but refused medical treatment at the scene.

He was not wearing a safety device at the time of the wreck.
