(KNZA)--A St. Joseph teenager was injured in an early Monday morning single-vehicle wreck on I-29 about one mile north of Faucett, Missouri.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says 18-year-old Wesley Darnell, of St. Joseph, was northbound when he fell alseep, causing his Chevy truck to travel off the west side of the roadway. The vehicle returned to the roadway and Darnell overcorrected, causing his truck to travel off the east side of the roadway and overturn.

A passenger, 18-year-old St. Joseph resident Megan Schussler, was transported to Mosaic Life Care in St. Joseph by private vehicle with moderate injuries.

Darnell was not hurt.

The Patrol says both occupants were wearing seatbelts when the wreck happened shortly after midnight.
