     At approximately 8:35pm this evening, Bonneville County Sheriff’s Deputies and Idaho Falls Ambulance responded to the area of Lincoln and Bone Rd. to a one vehicle rollover crash.  Upon arrival, emergency personnel found one victim, a 19 year old male, that had been ejected during the crash with severe injuries.  The victim was transported to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center via ambulance.
