A 25-year-old man from Aitkin, Minn., died late Saturday in a one-car crash in Aitkin County.

Mason Espeseth was driving east on Deer Street just before 11:45 p.m. when his pickup truck went off the right side of the road. He overcorrected and swerved into the left ditch, steered back up into the left lane, then rolled several times before coming to rest in the ditch on the right side of the road.

Espeseth was wearing his seat belt, and the State Patrol report did not note any alcohol detection.
