A rollover crash in central Minnesota left the car's driver dead, and authorities suspect alcohol played a role in the wreck.

The crash occurred about 6:35 a.m. Saturday on eastbound Hwy. 210 near McGregor, according to the State Patrol.

The name of the driver, a 56-year-old man from McGregor, has not been released.

The car entered a ditch to the driver's right, went airborne, rolled over and landed in a field, the patrol said.

The motorist was thrown from the wreckage, the patrol said, suggesting that the man was not wearing a seat belt.
