A Severn man died early yesterday when his van veered across the median of Interstate 97 in Crownsville and overturned in the northbound lanes.

Police said Warren M. Sommerville, 55, of the 600 block of Queenstown Road was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the 1975 Chevrolet van in which he was the only occupant.

He was southbound on the interstate near John Hanson Highway shortly before 3: 30 a.m.
