Clear Lake Man Hurt In Rollover In St. Augusta

ST. AUGUSTA - A Clear Lake man has been hospitalized after rolling his vehicle in St. Augusta.

The Stearns County Sheriff's Office says they received a 911 call of a one vehicle rollover on County Road 44, about a half mile east of County Road 7. Deputies found a car on its roof in the ditch.

It appears that the car was eastbound on County Road 44 when it left the road and went straight off a sharp curve hitting a field approach and then several trees.

Forty-eight year old James Gall of Clear Lake was taken to St. Cloud Hospital.  A hospital spokeswoman says he's listed in 'fair' condition.

Alcohol is believed to be a factor.

The incident happened just after 11:30 p.m. last (Thursday) night.
