A Saint Joseph man was injured in a Buchanan County crash late Tuesday morning.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the accident occurred on U.S. 169, two miles north of Gower, when a vehicle driven by 23-year-old Christian C. Wilson was heading southbound.

Troopers say Wilson ran off the right side of the road, overcorrected, crossed back over the road, went off the left side of the highway, struck a ditch, and overturned.

Wilson was taken to Mosaic Hospital for treatment of moderate injuries.

Troopers say Wilson was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.
