Beaittie died at an Ardmore hospital after a wreck Sunday on a Carter County highway, troopers said.

The wreck occurred about 12:50 a.m. on U.S. 70 just east of Ardmore, the patrol said.

Beaittie was westbound in his pickup when it crossed the median and eastbound lanes, went into a broad slide on the far side of the road and rolled twice.

Troopers said Beaittie was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the pickup.
