A Beecher City man was injured in a crash during the noon hour Thursday.

State police say 45-year-old Curtis Rogers was hurt when his pickup truck ran off Illinois Route 128, two miles northwest of Beecher City, at 12:10pm. The truck struck a culvert, turned sideways, began to barrel roll and came to rest on its roof. Rogers was ejected from the vehicle.

Rogers was airlifted from the scene to HSHS St. John's Hospital in Springfield. He was cited for improper lane usage and for not wearing his seat belt.
