    LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) ? Authorities say a Bauxite man has died after testing positive for swine flu.

    Pulaski County Coroner Garland Camper says 37-year-old Jeffery Rollinson died Wednesday night at Baptist Health Medical Center in Little Rock.
    Camper says he wasn't aware of Rollinson suffering from any pre-existing illnesses before he was diagnosed with swine flu on Nov. 7.

    The Arkansas Department of Health has confirmed 18 deaths from swine flu, though it hasn't yet confirmed that Rollinson's death was caused by the flu strain.
