COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Two people are dead after a single-vehicle crash occurred Tuesday in Hermann, according to a crash report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

The report says a 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe – driven by a 52-year-old Hermann man – was facing southbound when it was found south of East 6^th Street at a private property.

The vehicle went over an embankment, hit several trees and went into a creek before overturning several times, the report says. A passenger – a 65-year-old Hermann woman – was ejected from the vehicle, the report says. Both people were pronounced dead at the scene and were brought to the Gasconade County Coroner’s Office, the report says.

Neither person in the crash wore a seatbelt. The vehicle was totaled.

MSHP reports do not name those involved in crashes.
