A Cavalier, N.D., man was killed in a one-vehicle rollover this morning on Interstate 29 south of Pembina, N.D.
According to the North Dakota Highway Patrol, a 2004 Ford F-350 pickup driven by Manuel Perez, 48, of Cavalier, was southbound on I-29 when he lost control of the truck on a frosty bridge deck. The vehicle slid in to the west ditch where it rolled several times, the patrol said. Perez was ejected from the vehicle and his passenger, Clayton Allison, 47, of Pembina, N.D., had to be extracted from the truck. Perez and Allison were taken to Pembina County Memorial Hospital, where Perez later died. Allison was later transported to Altru Hospital in Grand Forks, where he was listed in serious condition this afternoon. The crash remains under investigation.
