RANDLETT, Uintah County — A man died in a rollover crash near 6300 South and 17500 East in Randlett on Saturday.

About 9 p.m., emergency personnel responded to reports of a rollover crash. When emergency personnel arrived they were directed to the driver who had been ejected from the vehicle, according to Uintah County Sheriff's Office in a Facebook post.

Despite life-saving efforts, the 31-year-old died at the scene.

It appears the driver went off the roadway and over-corrected, causing the vehicle to roll multiple times off the hillside. The vehicle was found several hundred feet from the roadway.

The crash remains under investigation with speed and impairment being considered as factors, the post said.

The identity of the man was not released.
