A Sedalia man sustained serious injuries following a roll-over crash in Pettis County Saturday afternoon.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports the crash occurred when the southbound motorcycle driven by 63-year-old Benjamin Hinsberger entered a corner and began to overturn. The bike began to skid after Hinsberger overcorrected the vehicle and it traveled off the roadway and overturned, ejecting both Hinsberger and his passenger.
Hinsberger was transported to University of Missouri Hospital in Columbia for treatment of serious injuries. His passenger, 59-year-old Debra Blankenship, also of Sedalia, was taken to Bothwell Regional Health Center for treatment of minor injuries.
The crash happened just after 12:30 p.m. Saturday on Route M and Garrison Road.
