Two people were killed in separate vehicle accidents Saturday.

A 22-year-old man died after being ejected from a vehicle as it rolled over on Montana 2 near Columbia Falls on Saturday afternoon.

The man who was killed was the vehicle's driver, the Montana Highway Patrol said. The patrol and the Flathead County Sheriff's Office declined to release his name Sunday.

Three other passengers in the vehicle - a 21-year-old man, a 21-year-old woman and an 18-year-old man - were injured and taken to Kalispell Regional Medical Center. Their names also have not been released.

Another man died Saturday evening when his motorcycle failed to make a curve on Montana 83.

The man was driving north on Montana 83 in Lake County when he took a curve too fast, causing him to lose control of the motorcycle and landing him down an embankment, the Montana Highway Patrol said. The patrol and the Lake County Sheriff's Office declined Sunday to release his name, age or hometown.

The ALERT helicopter took him to Kalispell Regional Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
