A Neosho man was put under arrest by the Missouri State Highway Patrol Saturday after he allegedly caused two hit-and-run crashes.
The first crash took place around 3:30 Saturday afternoon in an area near 44th and South Main, just outside the Joplin City limits.
The Patrol says 37-year-old Dustin Harp left the scene of that accident.
Shortly after that, his car left the right side of the road and struck a traffic sign and then overturned at the Redings Mill Bridge.
He was found in a wooded area nearby suffering from non-life-threatening injuries. Harp faces multiple charges in Newton County.
