A 38-year-old Grand Rapids, Ohio, man was in fair condition at Medical College of Ohio Hospitals with injuries he suffered when his vehicle overturned into a ditch yesterday on Maumee-Western Road behind the Toledo Express Airport.

Earl Dudek was driving east about 10:35 a.m. when he lost control of his vehicle, hit a ditch and turned over, said Trooper Will Richardson, of the Toledo post of the Ohio Highway Patrol.

Trooper Richardson said Mr. Dudek was cited for failure to maintain control, driving under the influence, and a seat-belt violation.
