SWAN LAKE - The Montana Highway Patrol says a 36-year-old Bigfork man died in a one-vehicle crash in the Swan Valley over the weekend.

The patrol says the man was eastbound on Bond Creek Lane, just off Montana Highway 83, when he lost control of his vehicle around midnight Saturday. The vehicle went off the road, rolled three-quarters of the way over, coming to rest on the passenger side in Bond Creek. The man was ejected from the vehicle and pinned underneath it.

The crash was reported at about noon Sunday. The victim's name hasn't been released.
