A man was hospitalized Tuesday night following a rollover car crash on the interstate near Lowell, according to the Arkansas State Police.

State police and emergency crews responded just after 7 p.m. to the southbound lane of Interstate 540, near Exit 78. The driver, identified by state police as Melchor Figueroa, was driving his 2003 Dodge Stratus southbound on I-540, when he lost control of his car, according to a state police crash report.
