(KAIR)--Two Rushville, Missouri residents were among three injured in an early Saturday morning, single vehicle Buchanan County, Missouri crash.

According to a report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol, all three occupants of the Chevrolet Silverado were transported to Mosaic Life Care, in Saint Joseph, Missouri, by Buchanan County EMS, for treatment.

Behind the wheel of the truck, at the time of the crash, was 22-year-old Rushville resident Zachary Novotny who, along with his two passengers, a 16-year-old Rushville girl and 18-year-old Madelyn McKnight, of Agency, Missouri, suffered what the Patrol identified as serious injuries.

No one was buckled up at the time of the wreck, which happened as Novotny drove the truck westbound on southwest Sampson Road, east of Route JJ, in DeKalb, around 1:40 Saturday morning. The truck, for reasons not specified, went off the south side of the road and down an embankment, with the front bumper crashing into the embankment, and the truck stopping, upright, in a creek.
