A 19-year-old Ashland man died early Monday morning in a one-vehicle rollover crash near Broadus, according to the Montana Highway Patrol.
A passenger in the vehicle, a 20-year-old Ekalaka man, was injured in the crash and taken to a hospital in Rapid City, South Dakota. His condition was not released.
The Ashland man was driving the Ford F-250 pickup truck west on Highway 212 when he lost control and overcorrected, then veered off the right side of the road, rolling over in a ditch, according to the highway patrol.
He died at the scene.
Neither man was wearing a seatbelt. Troopers said they suspect speed was a contributing factor in the crash.
