HARTLAND (AP) -- A Vermont man has died from injuries suffered in a car crash in Hartland last week.
Vermont State Police say 82-year-old Robert Guillette of Hartland fell asleep at the wheel on Interstate 91 south on Friday, going off the road and hitting a rock ledge in the median.
Police say he was taken to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center with what appeared to be minor injuries.
But police say a hospital evaluation determined that he had more serious internal injuries. Guillette died of those injuries on Monday.
