ENID, Okla. - A 32-year-old Enid man died Tuesday morning from injuries sustained in a Monday night single-vehicle rollover on North Cleveland, according to an Enid Police Department traffic collision report.
Alan Banks died at OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City at about 8:45 a.m. Tuesday. He was flown to the hospital after first being taken to Integris Bass Baptist Health Center in Enid following the crash.
Banks was driving a 2005 Volkswagen Jetta south in the 6200 block of North Cleveland at about 9:23 p.m. Monday when the vehicle began fishtailing before losing control, according to the report. The Jetta left the street to the right in a partial slide, hit the ditch and went airborne. The vehicle hit the ground, continued before striking a fence and rolling three times, coming to rest on its wheels.
Banks and his passenger, 20-year-old Hannah Sylestine, were ejected from the vehicle. Sylestine also was flown to OU Medical Center and admitted with serious injuries.
The cause of the collision remains under investigation.
