ANGORA TWP- A Cook man has died from injuries sustained in a rollover accident Sunday on Hwy. 53 about six miles south of Cook.
Glen Ellsworth Economy, 59, was traveling northbound in a 2011 Chevrolet Corvette at 6:31 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 14 near the intersection of Hwy. 53 and Heino Rd. when he passed another vehicle and then lost control of his vehicle. The car left the roadway and rolled, killing Economy.
Cook Ambulance and Cook Fire responded to the scene but did not transport the victim to a health care facility, according to a Minnesota State Patrol report. Economy was wearing a seat belt, but the Corvette’s airbag did not deploy, the report said. It was unknown if alcohol was a factor in the accident.
The St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office assisted with the call.
