(KLZA)--Two Rock Port, Missouri men suffered what authorities described as moderate injuries Monday afternoon in a single-vehicle crash in Atchison County, Missouri.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the crash happened shortly after noon when a pickup truck traveling south on Route U, about three miles south of Langdon, Missouri, crossed the center line. The vehicle then ran off the east side of the roadway, struck an embankment, continued into a ditch, and hit a culvert.
The driver, a 66-year-old man, and his passenger, a 39-year-old man, were both reportedly not wearing safety devices at the time of the crash.
Both men were transported by Atchison-Holt Ambulance to Fairfax Community Hospital for treatment of their injuries.
The pickup was declared a total loss.
Assisting at the scene were the Atchison County Sheriff’s Office, Rock Port Fire Department, and the Missouri Department of Conservation.
