The State Patrol said four were in a 2010 Dodge Ram pickup that was heading east on I-94 near Dalton, which is about 13 miles southeast of Fergus Falls, when the patrol said the truck hit the shoulder on the north side of the interstate, over-corrected to the right, and then rolled into the median. The vehicle ended up in the westbound lanes of I-94.
