KILLDEER, N.D. — A Montana man has died after being run over by a truck in the western North Dakota oil patch.

The Highway Patrol says the 41-year-old Culbertson man was a passenger in a service truck that stopped on state Highway 22 in McKenzie County on Thursday evening when some insulation blew out of the truck bed.

After picking it up, he was run over when the truck backed up and he fell. He died at the scene. He wasn’t immediately identified.
