MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — A 19-year-old man died in a one-vehicle crash in southwestern Montana over the weekend.

The Montana Highway Patrol says the man from Taylors, South Carolina, was eastbound on Montana Highway 200 northwest of Missoula at about 3:45 a.m. Sunday when his car crossed the center line, went off the road and hit a guardrail. The car slid along the rail for about 50 feet before spinning and coming to rest in a ditch.

The Missoulian reports (http://bit.ly/1w0TNX0) the victim was the only person in the car. He died at the scene.

His name was being withheld until family members could be notified.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
