Police Investigating Rollover That Ejected Nine People Near Las Cruces

Police say they're investigating a rollover crash that sent nine people to the hospital.

New Mexico State Police spokesman Sgt. Chad Pierce says the crash happened Sunday night along Interstate 25 north of Las Cruces. Officers responded and found in the median an SUV that had rolled several times.

Pierce says the nine people who were inside the SUV were ejected. They were taken from the scene to nearby hospitals via air and ground ambulances.

Their conditions, names and ages were not immediately available, and Pierce says the cause of the crash has yet to be determined.
