PAYSON, UT : 2 killed, 1 critically injured in Payson crash with semi-truck on Wednesday, 3rd January 2024

An early morning highway crash in Utah County claimed the lives of two people, while a 15-year-old teenager was critically injured.

The crash happened around 1:20 a.m. about one mile South of Payson in the northbound lanes of Interstate 15. Utah Highway Patrol told FOX 13 News the crash involved a semi-truck as well as a Honda Civic.
Initially, a semi-truck drifted off the road to the left and overcorrected back to the right, which caused the driver to lose control and roll the semi-truck on its side."A short time later," UHP reported a red Honda Civic was traveling northbound through the area and "did not notice the overturned semi," hitting the trailer that was blocking the freeway.

The Civic's female driver and a 21-year-old female passenger died at the scene, while the teen remains in critical condition. The truck driver sustained only minor injuries in the crash.
