A 28-year old man ended up in the hospital rolling his truck over near Olney Saturday on U.S. Highway 93.

Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Lacey Alby says the accident happened at around 6:30 a.m. as the man was driving southbound.

It appears he fell asleep, drifted to the side of the road, and overcorrected. Trooper Alby added that the victim crossed over into the northbound lane, rolled and his truck over and it landed on its top.

Search and Rescue and medical personnel had to remove him from the vehicle and he was taken to Kalispell Regional Medical Center.

The man was the only person in the vehicle and MHP is still looking into what caused the crash.
