Two people were seriously injured in a crash Monday on Highway 22 in northern Boone County, just outside of Sturgeon, according to a crash report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

The report says the crash occurred as a 2003 Toyota Avalon – driven by a 39-year-old Sturgeon woman – was heading eastbound when it hit a 2021 Toyota Corolla – driven by a 31- year-old Columbia man – in the eastbound lane.

Both vehicles went off the right side of the road and crashed again, the report says. The man was wearing a seatbelt and the woman was not, the report says. The man was flown to University Hospital with serious injuries. The woman was brought to University Hospital by ambulance, the report shows.

Both vehicles were totaled. A lane was shut down while first responders worked in the area for multiple hours.
