BILLINGS - The Montana Highway Patrol says a man has died in a one-vehicle rollover near Edgar, southwest of Laurel.

The crash happened just before 9:30 p.m. Saturday, when the patrol says 30-year-old David Bauwens of Edgar lost control on Leslie Road and then overcorrected. The vehicle rolled four times.

Bauwens, who was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected and died at the scene. A passenger was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.
