The Minnesota State Patrol says 62-year-old Dean Johnson was driving a straight truck in the right lane of westbound I-94 when he rear-ended an SUV. Johnson's truck then struck the barrier at the entrance to the off-ramp and flipped on its driver's side.
The patrol says Johnson, who was not wearing his seat belt, died in the crash.
The driver of the SUV, 37-year-old Christina Dayou of Fargo, was not hurt in the crash.
