CITRUS PARK — A Tampa man remained in critical condition Saturday evening after his car spun out of control and overturned on the Veterans Expressway in the pre-dawn hours Saturday, the Florida Highway Patrol said.

Chase Kattell, 21, was driving northbound at a high rate of speed shortly before 3 a.m. when he veered into the east grass shoulder of the road, officials said. Kattell overcorrected, causing the car to spin counter-clockwise and collide with a mound of dirt. The 2001 Toyota overturned before coming to a stop on the shoulder of the road.

Kattell was transported to St. Joseph's hospital in critical condition.
