A Salisbury man suffered moderate injuries after his grain truck overturned on a Chariton County highway Monday afternoon.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says that 80-year-old Virgil Yung was driving north on Route NN about five miles south of Salisbury, when at around 4:35 p.m. the truck went off the road and overturned. Yung was taken to a Columbia hospital. Troopers say he had not been wearing his seat belt at the time of the accident.
