(KNZA)--A Faucett, Missouri teenager was seriously injured in a all-terrian vehicle accident over the weekend in Buchanan County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the crash occurred shortly after midnight Sunday in a harvested corn field on private property about five miles south of St. Joseph.

The Patrol reports the 16-year-old boy was southbound when he attempted to turn east and lost control of his ATV, causing the vehicle to overturn. The boy was ejected and the ATV came to rest on top of him.

The teen was transported to Mosiac Life Care in St. Joseph with what the Patrol described as serious injuries.

The Patrol did not release the name of the boy, who they report was not wearing a safety device.
