Frost on the roadway this morning resulted in an accident in Galt that left two with injuries.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says a pickup operated by 33-year old Eliezer Santiago of Milan was westbound on Highway 6 in Galt when it hit the frost. The pickup slid off the north side of the roadway where it struck an embankment and a tree before coming to a rest.
Santiago and 47-year old Ruiz Osvaldo of Ponce, Puerto Rico sustained moderate injuries in the crash. Neither was wearing a seat belt. They were transported to Wright Memorial Hospital in Trenton.
The accident took place around 8 a.m. this morning.
