A Florissant man was injured early Sunday morning and taken to the hospital with moderate injuries after a crash on Interstate 270, just north of the Lilac exit.

Tyrone Booker, 39 of Florissant, rode with Ronald Mottley, of St. Louis, in a 2001 Chevrolet Impala. Mottley swerved to avoid hitting a car that had unsafely changed lanes, according to the Missouri Highway Patrol report.

The car crashed into a vacant car that was blocking the right shoulder and part of the right lane and then overturned.
