(LIVINGSTON COUNTY, Mo.) One person was transported to the hospital Saturday morning following a vehicle accident in Livingston County.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol crash report website states it was a one-vehicle accident near Highway D and LIV 416. The vehicle was driving southbound on Route D when it traveled west off the road. The vehicle then began sliding, eventually hitting a road sign that caused it to travel down an embankment and stop in a creek.

Troopers said the driver, John Damerell, 64, was transported to an area hospital for moderate injuries.

The Livingston County Sheriff's Office said there was concern the crash may have happened on Friday and the person may have been in that spot overnight.

Skies have started to cloud up late today after we saw sunshine for the first half of the day. Clouds will start to break apart again this afternoon with temperatures warming into the lower 50s. The majority of today will be dry, but there could be a few areas of light drizzle later this evening mainly to the south of the St. Joseph area. Temperatures will continue to warm on Saturday making a run for 60 under mostly sunny skies. A few clouds will move into the area Saturday evening as a cold front moves through. That cold front could bring us a few areas of light rain once again, but most areas will see less than a tenth of an inch of rain.. Temperatures will be slightly cooler on Sunday because of the cold front, but will quickly start to warm into the 50s by the beginning of next week.
