A Lewistown man has died after after losing control of his vehicle on Highway 87.
The Montana Highway Patrol responded to the incident just before 11 a.m. on Saturday near mile marker 109 east of Grass Range.
Troopers say the 67-year-old man was heading east on Highway 87 when he drifted into a ditch.
He over-corrected the vehicle causing his pickup to spin, then roll several times.
Officials say the vehicle came to a rest on its top.
The driver was not wearing his seatbelt and was ejected from the car and pronounced dead on scene.
Alcohol and speed are not considered factors in the accident.
The man's name has not been released.
