Eleven Marines are hospitalized and expected to be okay after being involved in a fatal rollover crash of a military truck at Marine Corps Air Station in Miramar.

One marine was killed and eight were treated and then released from the hospital when the seven-ton truck, part of a six vehicle convoy, practicing scheduled training, rolled over an embankment on the base Saturday.

The Major said the truck was moving along a dirt range road and the accident happened just before a sharp turn in the road on a steep embankment.
