LEWISTON, Minn. – A car flipped on its roof, partially ejecting the driver, who suffered fatal injuries. Donald Charles Wilson, 75, was declared dead by first-responders before a med-evac helicopter could arrive from Rochester 40 miles away. The accident was about 10:20 a.m. on County Road 25, which is the main route between Lewiston and Rollingstone. The road follows the west ridge above Garvin Brook Valley. The accident was on a straight stretch near the exit to Tews Road. Wilson apparently was en route home to Grandview Ridge. Deputies said the vehicle, a light Mazda sedan, left the right-of-way, hit an embankment, went airborne, nosed back into the embankment, and flipped. This was in a 55 mph zone. Wilson was not belted, deputies said.
