COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A 69-year-old Columbia man died from injuries he suffered in a crash on Saturday afternoon, the Columbia Police Department announced in a Monday social media post.

The post says Elbert Allen was driving east on Interstate 70 at 1:30 p.m. Saturday when he crashed his vehicle into a guardrail near the 123-mile marker, which is just west of the Stadium Boulevard exit.

Allen was brought to an area hospital in critical condition, but later died from his injuries, police wrote.
