LAMBERTVILLE, Mich. - A 20-year-old Ida, Mich., man was in critical condition last night in Toledo Hospital after his SUV went out of control and flipped over. He was thrown from the vehicle, Monroe County sheriff's deputies said.

Joshua Vandercook was northbound on Secor Road, just north of Erie Road, about 3 a.m. yesterday when his vehicle went left of center, struck a driveway culvert, and became airborne, deputies said.

Mr. Vandercook came to rest a few feet from his vehicle, which landed on its wheels in the southbound lane of Secor.
