The pickup struck a wall, ejecting Clingan, and continued another 1,600 feet on the ramp before stopping, an accident report says.

Holland was driving a 2008 Ford F250 when the pickup failed to negotiate a curve on 201st Street South west of Oklahoma 16 in Creek County at about 4 p.m., troopers said.
The pickup veered off the roadway to the right, Holland overcorrected and the vehicle came to rest on its top after striking a ditch, becoming airborne and hitting a tree, according to an accident report.
