JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – A 63 year-old man is dead after suffering a sudden medical condition on Highway 10 Tuesday evening.

The North Dakota Highway Patrol reports that the man was driving a 2004 Peterbilt with cattle from a Jamestown feedlot to Aberdeen, SD. The condition he suddenly suffered caused him to drift off the highway and into a field.

A short time later, two motorists approached the truck and found the driver unconscious. A Stutsman County Deputy, NDHP Troopers, and the Jamestown Ambulance arrived minutes after the two called 911.

The driver was transported to the Jamestown Regional Medical Center where he was declared dead.

No damage was reported to the truck or load. The incident remains under investigation by the North Dakota Highway Patrol.
