GREAT FALLS — A 19-year-old woman died early Saturday morning in a rollover crash on Interstate 90 west of Hardin.

According to the Montana Highway Patrol, a 1995 Saturn SW2 was heading west on I-90 at mile marker 491 when it drifted to the left and the driver overcorrected, causing the vehicle to roll several times.

The passenger, who was from Greeley, Colorado, was taken to St. Vincent hospital in Billings, where she later died.

Her name has not yet been released.

The driver, a 19-year-old man also from Greeley, was taken to Big Horn County Memorial Hospital in Hardin.

The nature and extent of his injuries has not been released.

Neither were wearing seat belts, according to the MHP; troopers suspect that drugs may have been a factor.
