Man Injured After Walking into Pickup

Authorities say a man was drunk when he walked into the side of a passing pickup, fell backwards and hit his head on the curb.

51-year-old Neil Fliflet was taken to Cooperstown Medical Center for treatment of head lacerations, before he was flown to Sanford in Fargo.

The accident happened around 7 o’clock last night on Highway 45 in Cooperstown.

A highway patrol trooper says Fliflet was not walking on the sidewalk at the time.

His condition is not known.
