COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Two men were seriously hurt in a Callaway County crash Saturday evening.

The crash occurred shortly after 4 p.m. on Old Highway 54, just north of Proper Tee Drive, according to a Missouri State Highway Patrol crash report.

A 38-year-old Fulton man was driving a 1995 Chevy Silverado south when he crossed over the center line while going around a curve and went off the left side of the road, the report says. When he returned to the road, the right side of his truck hit the right side of a northbound 2014 Ford Focus driven by a 38-year-old Fulton woman.

The vehicles then hit each other again as the Chevy flipped. The Chevy driver was taken by ambulance to University Hospital with serious injuries. The report says he was not wearing a seatbelt.

A 39-year-old New Bloomfield man was a passenger in the Ford and was seriously injured. He was taken by ambulance to the Capital Region Medical Center. He was wearing a seatbelt, according to the report. The Ford driver was not reported to have been hurt.
