Steven Green, the Rothsay man who received serious injuries in a rollover crash on Saturday, is now in satisfactory condition, according to a spokesperson at Sanford Medical Center in Fargo, N.D.

Green, 26, was a passenger in a truck that rolled off of County Road 118 near Elizabeth late Saturday night.

Green was taken by helicopter to Fargo, and another Rothsay man, Tyson Trosvig, 27, received minor injuries.

The truck’s driver, Joseph Marty, 26, of Pelican Rapids, was arrested in connection with the accident.

Alcohol was detected in his system.

    Drunk passengers should also get charged for intoxication as they are also responsible for getting in the car and not stopping the driver. I think this would do a lot of good in reducing drunk driving if everyone in the car had to take responsibility, after all, they have a part in it too.
