Man dies after rollover crash north of town

A 31-year-old man, with ties to Hot Springs County, has died from injuries sustained in a rollover crash northeast of Thermopolis last week, according to Wyoming Highway Patrol.

Jesse Tyler was traveling east in a pickup near mile marker 4 on WY 172, when he encountered severe frost heaves on the roadway.

According to the investigation, the vehicle crossed the south fog line and Tyler then overcorrected to the north, losing control of the pickup.

Tyler was transported by helicopter from Hot Springs County Memorial Hospital to the Wyoming Medical Center in Casper, where he succumbed to his injuries.
