A Douglas man was seriously injured in a one-vehicle rollover on the 1900 block of 9th Street early Saturday. Police and paramedics arrived at the scene, where they found the young man unconscious. He was flown to a Tucson hospital. The rollover occurred at about 4:37a.m. The driver, whose name has not yet been released, was traveling westbound on 9th Street. At a sharp turn near Dallas Avenue, the driver apparently lost control of the Jeep Cherokee and rolled over once and was about to roll a second time but was stopped by a parked Mustang. The police are continuing their investigation.

    " Can you say "DUI". Unreal, speed limit around majority of Douglas is 25. How could you roll a car at that speed? "
