A Snyder man was killed as a result of a rollover crash Sunday in Scurry County, according to a Texas Department of Public Safety media release. Roy Edward Bolen Jr., 54, died because of a one-vehicle crash that happened about 7:50 p.m. Sunday near Snyder, DPS officials said in a media release Monday. The preliminary investigation revealed Bolen was driving a white 2001 Ford F-250 west on U.S. Highway 180 when he lost control of the pickup 5 miles west of Snyder, DPS officials said. The rainy and wet conditions made the speed he was driving at unsafe, causing him to lose control, officials said.
