A 50-year-old Caldwell man is dead after a single-vehicle rollover in Payette County Wednesday morning.

It happened on U.S. Highway 95, south of Fruitland.

Idaho State Police investigators say Christopher W. Lowe of Caldwell, was driving southbound on U.S. Highway 95 in a 2016 Toyota Camry when he failed to negotiate a curve at milepost 58.5.  

The vehicle went off the road, down an embankment, struck the side of a dirt driveway and went airborne, according to an ISP news release.

It came to rest in a field on the west side of the highway. The crash occurred sometime after midnight, the release stated. 

Lowe was not wearing a seatbelt. Lowe had died of his injuries by the time the vehicle was located Wednesday morning.

Idaho State Police are still investigation.
