Oregon man hospitalized after 199 wreck

An Oregon man was hospitalized Sunday after his car struck a boulder and rolled over on U.S. Highway 199 south of Patrick Creek.

Wayne Snoozy, 71, of Klamath Falls, was driving south when he rounded a corner and was unable to avoid a boulder in the road, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Snoozy’s 2008 Ford truck left the  highway, ran up an embankment and landed on its left side, blocking both lanes of traffic.

Snoozy was transported to Sutter Coast Hospital for a laceration on his left arm, the CHP said. He was released from the hospital Monday.
